- 3/4 cup water
- 8 cups brussels sprouts sliced in half lengthwise
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp salt & pepper
- 1 pinch chili flakes
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
Add the 3/4 cup of water to the bottom of Instant Pot and then place trivet inside the inner pot.
Add brussels sprouts, then drizzle with olive oil & lemon juice, sprinkling garlic, salt & pepper and chili flakes overtop of brussels sprouts as well. Place lid on Instant Pot and make sure valve is set to seal.
Press the pressure cook button and set to low, then cook for 1 minute. The Instant Pot will take about 5-10 minutes to come to pressure, then notify you it's done by beeping.
Press the Cancel button then do a quick release of the pressure on the Instant Pot by flicking the switch at the top with a spoon. Open the lid when pressure gauge has dropped and the lid opens easily.
Carefully remove brussels sprouts from Instant Pot and serve on a large platter, gently tossing with freshly grated parmesan cheese. Serve and enjoy!
Try out more seasoning options like balsamic vinegar, mustard bacon, spicy, sriracha-lime and cheese sauce.
Soak the brussels sprouts in a bit of salt water before cooking to wash them and soften the leaves.
Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven for 5-10 minutes at 350° F or under the broiler for a couple minutes.
