How to make Brussels Sprouts with Sweet Chili – Orange Glaze:
- Start with approximately 2 pounds of fresh small to medium Brussels sprouts.
- Trim, halve and wash.
- Heat some oil in a large nonstick skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. I highly recommend a nonstick pan because you want to keep as much of the delicious glaze as possible. A nonstick pan will also help to keep if from burning.
- Add the halved Brussels sprouts and cook until they are beginning to brown and are developing some color.
- Add the orange juice, soy sauce, ginger and garlic. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until the sauce is starting to thicken and resembles a glaze.
- Partially cover and cook a little more.
- Drizzle the sweet chili sauce over the sprouts along with a hint of honey….
- Mama! A great pan-roasted Brussels sprouts side dish that’s so easy to make for a holiday dinner or any night of the year!
- Garnish with slivered almonds for some crunch.

What is sweet chili sauce? Is it store bought? Do I make it? Thanks
Hi, Lily, Thanks so much for your question. You can find sweet chili sauce in the Asian/international aisle at almost any grocery store. You can also make it yourself if you have a well-stocked pantry. There are numerous recipes out there. Thanks again, hope that answers your question and hope you enjoy!
