• Prep time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 pounds brussels sprouts, tough outer leaves removed, base trimmed, sprouts cut in half

• 3/4 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1 Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe sauté pan on medium high heat. Add the shallots, spread them out in an even layer, lower the heat to medium low, and let them cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until softened and lightly browned.
