Pressure Cooker Lemon Butter Brussels Sprouts Yes, you can have tender brussels sprouts that are crisp and buttery on the outside…. using your pressure cooker
Okay, so maybe making brussels sprouts in the pressure cooker is a bit simple but I want to get the most out of my handy dandy pressure cooker
How do you get that with the pressure cooker
Simply add one cup of water and lower your sprouts into the pot, using the steam rack. Place the lid on, close the vent and use the manual button. Adjust the time to 2 minutes. Once the pressure cooker does it’s thing and the time has counted down, carefully release the pressure.
To crisp up the outer leaves of the sprouts, take the steam rack out and drain the water off. Add a couple tablespoons of butter and some lemon juice. Use the saute function and brown them for a couple of minutes to your liking.
Top with freshly grated Parmesan and wha-la! Delish!
These guys are one of our most favorite sides to have with any meal. Incorporating the butter and lemon livens up brussels sprouts so well that even picky eaters won’t turn their noses up at them.
