Spicy maple grilled brussels sprouts are the most delicious side dish. The brussels sprouts get caramelized and slightly charred on the outside and are full of sweet and spicy flavor.
Preheat grill to medium high heat (about 400 degrees F) and lightly oil the grate.
Cut off the stem of the brussels sprouts (just the white part on the bottom) and remove any outer yellow leaves. Be very careful not to cut too much off the stem, otherwise the leaves will all fall off!
Place brussels sprouts in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, dijon, garlic, cayenne, salt and pepper. Pour all over the brussel sprouts and toss until they’re full coated.
Skewer 4-5 brussels onto each skewer. Reserve extra sauce in the bottom of the bowl.
Place skewers on grill, cooking for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until brussels sprouts are golden brown and slightly charred. Before serving, brush brussels with any remaining sauce and sprinkle with a little extra salt, if desired. Serves 4.
