Ingredients

  • Brussels sprouts – 1 lb
  • Olive oil – 2 tbsp

  2. Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Tip: Save time by buying pre-trimmed sprouts.
  3. Toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil on a baking sheet, ensuring they’re evenly coated. Spread them out in a single layer for even cooking.
  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  5. While the sprouts roast, mix the blue cheese crumbles with milk in a small bowl to create a drizzleable sauce. Tip: For a smoother sauce, let the blue cheese sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before mixing.
  6. Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven and immediately toss them with buffalo sauce in a large bowl until fully coated.
  7. Transfer the buffalo-coated sprouts to a serving plate and drizzle with the blue cheese mixture. Tip: Use a spoon or a squeeze bottle for a neat drizzle.

Buffalo Brussels Sprouts and Chicken Skewers

Buffalo Brussels Sprouts and Chicken Skewers

How many times have I stared into my fridge, wondering what to make with that lone pack of chicken breasts and a bag of Brussels sprouts? Too many to count, but that’s how these Buffalo Brussels Sprouts and Chicken Skewers were born—a perfect blend of spicy, savory, and just a bit of crunch.

Ingredients

  • Chicken breasts – 1 lb
  • Brussels sprouts – 1 lb
  • Buffalo sauce – ½ cup
  • Olive oil – 2 tbsp
  • Salt – 1 tsp
  • Black pepper – ½ tsp

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F.
  2. Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and trim the Brussels sprouts, halving the larger ones.
  3. Thread the chicken and Brussels sprouts alternately onto skewers, leaving a small space between each piece for even cooking.
  4. Brush the skewers lightly with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
  5. Place the skewers on the grill. Grill for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through.
  6. Brush the skewers generously with Buffalo sauce. Grill for an additional 5 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  7. Remove from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes before serving.

My tip for extra crispy Brussels sprouts? Don’t overcrowd the skewers. Another pro tip: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning. Lastly, for an extra kick, drizzle more Buffalo sauce right before serving. Must say, the charred edges of the Brussels sprouts against the spicy, tender chicken is a game-changer. Serve these skewers over a bed of quinoa or with a side of blue cheese dressing for dipping.

  3. Toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil and salt in a large bowl until evenly coated. Tip: Don’t skip the oil; it helps them crisp up beautifully.
  4. Spread the sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Crowding can lead to steaming instead of roasting.
  5. Roast for 20 minutes, then flip them for uniform browning. Tip: Look for a golden-brown color as a sign they’re getting crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven, drizzle with Buffalo sauce, and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
