Preparation
Chef’s notes
Homemade Alfredo sauce makes these Brussels sprouts irresistible. It's easy to make, has simple ingredients, and comes together in minutes.
Alfredo sauce is the easiest way to elevate a home-cooked meal to a restaurant-quality dish.
Pass me a bowl of these creamy sprouts and it’s all I need. These disappear fast and always get rave reviews. They are rich and indulgent for sure but I suspect they will be the best Brussels sprouts you’ve tried.
Cook’s Tip:
The key to a great Alfredo sauce is to bring the sauce just to a simmer after adding the parmesan so the cheese just melts into the sauce and makes it smooth. If you overcook Alfredo, the cheese will curdle.
Avoid large sprouts, discolored leaves, and black spots which indicate fungus.
