YUMMY BRUSSEL SPROUTS

A lady that I cooked for in Linville Resorts shared this recipe years ago. If you like Brussel sprouts, you'll love this recipe.

1 large sweet onion
1 lb. brussel sprouts
1/2 stick of butter
1 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. pepper
Cut onion in half and then slice thin. Slice brussel sprouts thin. Place each in seperate plastic bags and refrigerate overnight, or 8 hours.
Melt butter in skillet, add pecans and saute 5 minutes or until nice and toasted, do not burn. Remove from the skillet and add the onions and cook until caramelized, 8 minutes or so. Return pecans to the skillet along with the brussel sprouts and cook 3to 4 minutes.

Serves 8
