brusselSprouts

I usually start my brussel sprouts with pancetta. But not this time.

This time, I started my b.sprouts in the same pan as I'd pan-fried (with a little olive oil) some sliced chicken. First, I added my yellow onions and let them cook until semi-translucent. Then I added a cup of white wine and let it simmer a minute or two. Then I added my brussel sprouts, fresh red bell pepper, diced roasted red pepper, and minced garlic.

Once the fresh peppers are soft and the sprouts are tender and have lost their bitterness, I add balsamic vinegar.

Note: the chicken was marinated in olive oil, dijon mustard, rough-ground mustard, herbs (basil, oregano, thyme), minced garlic, salt and pepper.
