Ingredients:

  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1 cup chopped onion (1 medium onion)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups thinly sliced Brussels sprouts (about 1.5 lbs)

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions:

Melt butter in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Brussels sprouts and sauté for 3 minutes, until slightly golden-brown. Add broth, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, and optional cayenne pepper.
