Here is a dish that I make quite often to accompany fish, chicken pork or meat. Sometimes I will sprinkle the brussel sprouts with walnut halves or quarters and let them caramelize in the oven along with the brussel sprouts. Other times I will substitute the balsamic vinegar with lemon juice and olive oil. It tastes equally good. Or I will add some broccoli to the mix.
You can substitute frozen brussel sprouts instead of fresh, but you will have the thaw them out before putting them in the oven, as with any other frozen vegetable. They will caramelize better when they are thawed out. Enjoy!
