Spicy Brussels Sprouts with Fried Capers
Photo: James Baigrie; Styling: Randy Mon
Add Mediterranean flair to Brussels sprouts with capers, garlic, anchovy, and red chile flakes. If you’re not an anchovy fan, just leave them out. The dish will still have plenty of flavor.
How to Make It
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add brussels sprouts and cook just until tender and bright green, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, blot capers on a paper towel. Heat oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add capers and cook, stirring carefully (mixture will splatter), until capers start to open and are brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer capers to a paper towel to drain.
Step 3
Add garlic and anchovies to pan and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add brussels sprouts and chile flakes and stir to coat with oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with capers and a squeeze of lemon.
Step 4

I made this dish to take to my sister-in-laws home for Thanksgiving. The dish was very well liked. I would recommend to be careful not to over cook the capers, and maybe add additional anchovies. Looking forward to making next year if not before.
