Parmesan Brussels Sprouts
This is really the ONLY way to have brussels sprouts. Crisp-tender and so crunchy! A must have side-dish with all of your meals!
I’m headed to Manhattan first thing in the morning but I could not leave you guys without sharing the most epic brussels sprouts of my stinking life.
It’s crazy to even think that I hated brussels sprouts until 2013.
But I guess you can’t turn down anything when it’s deep fried.
And then coated in a sea of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
With a side of Ranch of course.
Parmesan Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup Panko
- ⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan
- 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
- 1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- In a large bowl, combine Panko, Parmesan and cajun seasoning; set aside.
- Working in batches, dredge brussels sprouts in flour, dip into eggs, then dredge in Panko mixture, pressing to coat.
- Add brussels sprouts to the skillet, 5 or 6 at a time, and cook until evenly golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve immediately.

Could they possibly be parboiled, chilled, then prepared for baking? …or something like that?
I have not tried this myself but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work!
It looks delicious and I am sure that it will taste delicious too. Brussel sprouts are not my favourite but I am going to give this a try looking at how delicious they can be.
Now wait a minute here are these even legal? 😉 question though it doesn’t say anything about having to boil them a little bit first so they aren’t hard when they are done frying. I’m new to the brussel sprout game.
No need to boil them first! 🙂
This looks like a life-changing way to eat brussels sprouts!!! I can’t wait to try it!
I was thinking, what? Brussels sprouts are awesome in so many forms! But then I scrolled down to that closeup and thought OMG I hope I can find Brussels sprouts at the market because I need to eat this now!
