Brussel Sprouts with "Onion Rings"

I needed a vegetable that would work with a hearty meal of steak and potatoes. The "onion rings" made from shallots add a crunch that combines perfectly with this little cabbage. Enjoy as a side or over a salad. Serves 4

Ingredients

1 1/4 cup of brussel sprouts-trimmed, bottoms cut off, and halved

1 large shallot

4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400 F
Sprinkle sprouts with about a tablespoon of oil
add salt and pepper, then toss to fully coat
Place in the oven for 30 minutes, stirring every ten
Once browned, removed and allow to cool

In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp oil oven medium high heat
Place in shallots and cook for about 4 minutes (until browned)
Stir occasionally

With a slotted spoon or tongs, remove rings

Place rings on a paper towel to cool/ drain

When brussel sprouts are cooled, put on a plate and top with shallots
