3g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper

Instructions:

1. Prep the Ingredients:
- Wash the brussels sprouts thoroughly, trim the ends, and slice them in half or quarters, depending on their size.
- Finely chop the onion.
- Mince the garlic clove.
2. Heat the Pan:
- Place a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
- Add the 3 teaspoons of olive oil to the pan and allow it to heat up for about 1-2 minutes.
3. Sauté the Onion:
- Add the finely chopped onion to the pan.
- Sauté the onion for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and starts to soften.
4. Add the Brussels Sprouts:
- Add the brussels sprouts to the pan with the softened onions.
- Stir well to ensure the brussels sprouts are coated with the olive oil and distributed evenly in the pan.
5. Sauté the Brussels Sprouts:
- Cook the brussels sprouts for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Make sure the brussels sprouts develop a nice golden-brown color and are tender when pierced with a fork. If needed, adjust the heat to prevent burning.
6. Add Garlic and Seasoning:
- Add the minced garlic to the pan during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
- Stir well to combine the garlic with the brussels sprouts and onions.
- Season the mixture with a dash of salt and black pepper to taste.

Tips:

- Ensure the Brussels sprouts are uniformly sliced to ensure even cooking.

- Use fresh garlic for the best flavor, but you can substitute with garlic powder if needed.

- Feel free to add a splash of lemon juice at the end of cooking to add a zesty flavor.

- Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary to achieve a nice, caramelized finish.

- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for an extra layer of flavor.
