Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts ends trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 1 shallot thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 3 to 4 ounces Jambon de Bayonne or prosciutto
  • Wedge of parmesan cheese or 1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and shallot and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the sprouts are golden brown, stirring frequently. Add the basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute, until the basil is fragrant.
  • Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, until the sprouts are tender.
  • Arrange the jambon to Bayonne all around the sprouts. Shave the parmesan cheese over the sprouts (using a vegetable peeler), or top with the shredded cheese. Serve hot or room temperature.
