Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Serves 4-6
1 cup Ottavio Platinum Balsamic Vinegar (available at most HEB’s)
2 tbsp Salted Butter
2 lbs Fresh Brussels Sprouts *cut in half
½ cup Golden raisins
¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp ea. Kosher Salt & black pepper
- Heat oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl combine halved brussels sprouts with olive oil and salt and pepper. Toss well to combine and place on a sheet pan and into the oven. Cook until just browned, about 30-45 min. (The darker the sprout, the more intense the flavor)
- Combine the roasted brussel sprouts with the raisins and drizzle with Balsamic Caramel (Recipe below)
- Balsamic Caramel: In a stainless steel saucepan (or non-reactive pot) reduce 1 cup of balsamic vinegar over low heat until liquid is reduced by half (takes about 20min over low-med heat). Cut the heat and add in the butter and whisk until melted. Let stand for about 5 min, drizzle over anything.
