    Recipe Introduction


    12 servings, about 1/2 cup each

    List of Ingredients




    2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
    1 tablespoon butter
    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    3 tablespoons reduced-sodium chicken broth
    3/4 cup coarsely chopped chestnuts, (about 4 ounces; see Tip)
    2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    Freshly ground pepper to taste


    Recipe



    Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts and cook until bright green and just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.

    Melt butter with oil and broth in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Brussels sprouts, chestnuts and sage and cook, stirring often, until heated through, 2 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    Tips:
    You don't need to prepare your own chestnuts for this dish. Cooked and peeled chestnuts are available in jars at this time of year. Look for them in the baking aisle or near other seasonal food items.
    Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 1, cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours.
