• They require just a handful of very simple steps and ingredients! Olive oil and balsamic vinegar set the foundation for this easy grilled veggie. The Brussels sprouts get tossed in the marinade then set on the grill for just 10 minutes before they’re ready to enjoy!
• The grill gives these sprouts a unique smoky flavor that is totally irresistible! Most people have had Brussels sprouts cooked every which way, except grilled. Trust me when I tell you that the first time you grill this green veggie will definitely not be the last!

Key Ingredients

Brussels Sprouts – Be sure to use fresh Brussels sprouts for this recipe, frozen won’t work here. To prepare your sprouts, start by trimming off the stem and giving them a good rinse. Then remove any leaves that appear yellow, or like they’ve gone bad. Once you’ve done that, you’re ready to use them in this recipe!

Balsamic Vinegar – Balsamic vinegar is rich, slightly sweet, and takes these grilled Brussels sprouts to the next level! The intense flavor of this vinegar adds incredible depth of flavor to this hearty vegetable.

Honey – While optional, I highly recommend finishing off this side dish with a drizzle of honey! A little bit of sweetness balances out the deep savory and tangy flavors of this recipe. If you’re looking to make this vegan or don’t have any honey, maple syrup will work as well!

Chef’s Tips

• If you’re concerned about your Brussels sprouts falling through the grates on your grill, you have a couple of options to avoid that from happening. You can either place the sprouts on skewers before grilling or grill them on a sheet of aluminum foil over the grill. Though I personally never had any issues with losing Brussels sprouts!
• Feel free to add or remove any seasonings you’d like to this recipe. As long as you follow the method to grilling Brussels sprouts, you can switch up the flavors however you’d like. Fresh minced garlic, or even lemon juice would both make for tasty additions!
• This side dish definitely tastes best immediately after cooking. Though any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up three days. Reheat by tossing in a sauté pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until warmed through!
