Spicy Honey-Glazed Brussels Sprouts

Spicy Honey-Glazed Brussels Sprouts

Spicy Honey-Glazed Brussels Sprouts is the result of a cooking mistake. I accidentally poured nearly 1/4 cup of ground black pepper into the brussels sprouts! (I was recovering from wrist surgery so I couldn’t use a pepper grinder.) I frantically removed as much of the pepper as possible but, as you can imagine, there was still more pepper than I would normally add…way more! To offset the spiciness, I added honey to the brussels sprouts and as a result this recipe was born. Sometimes mistakes are the best way to develop new recipes! Now I have a sweet, crispy, spicy brussels sprouts recipe that’s one of my favorites.
