Smoked Paprika and Shallot Brussel Sprouts Guest Post from KatiesCucina.com #recipe #vegetarian

Today I have a guest post from the lovely Katie of Katie’s Cucina. Thanks for being here, Katie!

Hi Rachel Cooks’ readers! I’m Katie from the food blog Katie’s Cucina. I am a Marketing professional during the day and home cook extraordinaire at night! I have no classical culinary training. Everything I’ve learned has been from my mom, watching cooking shows, and good ‘ol trial and error.

Katie’s Cucina is a place where I share my love for food – developing and cooking mouthwatering recipes weekly, baking indulgent desserts, and sharing foodie travels from coast to coast.

I’ve never met Rachel in person, but for a few years now we have connected through the internet (and can I just boast for second and tell you how sweet she is). Hopefully one of these days we will connect in real life. Last fall, I took a rather long vacation to Europe and Rachel was kind enough to help me out while I was gone and guest post for me.  I had told her upon my return back from Europe that I would help her out once her sweet baby was born. So, here I am!

Now let me show you how to make my Smoked Paprika and Shallot Brussels Sprouts!

{Guest Post from Katie's Cucina} Smoked Paprika and Shallot Brussels Sprouts #recipe #vegetarian #sidedish

People either love or hate Brussels sprouts. It wasn’t until my late teens/early twenties when I first began to fall in love with Brussels sprouts. I am always looking for new ways to cook them up.

I also love to keep my vegetable side dishes relatively healthy and not drown them in butter and fattening sauces. That is why I turned to my good friend, I mean spice, smoked paprika. This spice packs a punch and can bring tons of new layers of flavors to any dish. I just so happened to have a shallot in my pantry so I decided to make them fancy and add an extra-large shallot to the pan.

These flavorful Brussels sprouts make a delicious and simple side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 sprigs of fresh thyme + more for garnishing

Instructions

  • Trim and remove stems from Brussels sprouts. Place in a large pot and boil for 10 minutes until tender.
  • In a skillet, add two tablespoons olive oil and one shallot (thinly sliced). Cook for 3 minutes on medium heat, then add salt, pepper, and smoked paprika to the pan. Stir well, and add Brussels sprouts, stirring so that the shallots and seasoning cover the sprouts.
