A delightful twist on classic Brussels sprouts, featuring a tangy Dijon mustard glaze.
Place the Brussels sprouts in a microwave-safe dish and add a small amount of water to the bottom.
Cutting the Brussels sprouts in half can help them cook more evenly.
Cover the dish and microwave on high for about 7 minutes, or until the sprouts are tender-crisp.
Be careful when removing the cover as steam can escape and cause burns.
Drain any excess water from the dish.
Use a colander or tilt the dish carefully to avoid spilling.
Add the butter, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the sprouts.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly to ensure the sprouts are evenly coated.
Toss everything together until the Brussels sprouts are well coated with the glaze.
Toss gently to avoid breaking the sprouts.
Transfer the glazed Brussels sprouts to a serving bowl and serve warm.
Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley or grated Parmesan for added flavor.
