Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold water. Trim the ends and remove any damaged outer leaves. Cut larger sprouts in half for more even cooking.
- Fill a large pot with about 1 inch of water and insert a steamer basket. Bring the water to a boil and add the Brussels sprouts. Cover the pot and steam for about 5 minutes until sprouts are tender but still bright green.
- Transfer the steamed sprouts to a bowl. Add butter, salt, and pepper, then gently toss to coat. Serve immediately.
