Low Carb Buffalo Brussels Sprouts

Ingredients

• 1lb Brussels sprouts
• 3 T cooking oil of your choice
• 1oz blue cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons mayo
• 2 tablespoons sour cream
• 1 teaspoon cream
• Salt
• Black Pepper
• 2 T butter
• 1/4c Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, or similar

Instructions

1. Prepare the Brussels sprouts. Cut off the base and discard. Cut each sprout in half. Discard any tough or discolored exterior leaves.
2. Prepare the blue cheese sauce. Mix all ingredients together, and add salt and black pepper to taste.
3. Prepare the buffalo sauce. Add butter and hot sauce to a small pan over low heat. Melt butter, mix and keep warm.
4. Add cooking oil to a heavy pan. Heat over a high flame. Add Brussels sprouts (carefully), season with a generous pinch of salt, and spread out so as to maximize contact with the bottom of the pan.
5. Reduce heat to medium-high. Stir sprouts every few minutes, so that several sides of each sprout have a turn in direct contact with the pan. Add more fat if the pan seems too dry.
6. Continue to cook until the sprouts have mostly turned a dark brown, and have softened slightly, 6-10 minutes. Turn off heat.
7. Add Brussels sprouts to a bowl, and coat completely with buffalo sauce. Stir thoroughly.
8. Serve with blue cheese sauce.
