Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 3 Cups Brussels sprouts, halved
- 1 Cup chestnuts, peeled
- 1 Large orange, segmented
- 0.5 Cups chicken broth, low-fat, low-sodium
- 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) canola oil
- 1 Pinch salt, to taste
- 1 Pinch pepper, to taste
Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Prepare the Brussels sprouts by trimming the ends and cutting them in half. Use a small paring knife to make an X on the top of each sprout. This helps them cook evenly.
- Steam the Brussels sprouts over 2 inches of boiling water for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender. Remove from the pot and let them cool slightly.
- In a casserole dish, arrange the halved Brussels sprouts in a single layer. Top with the roasted chestnuts, followed by the orange segments.
- Pour the chicken broth evenly over the layered ingredients. Drizzle with canola oil and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the oranges are soft and the flavors have melded together.
- Serve warm as a delightful side dish that pairs well with roasted meats or as part of a vegetarian spread. Enjoy the harmonious blend of earthy and citrus flavors!
