Ingredients

1-pound Brussels sprouts
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice from navel orange
1 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1 clove garlic minced
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pinch of chili flakes (optional)
1/2 cup hazelnuts roughly chopped
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut chips
2-3 tablespoons pomegranate arils

Preparation

Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts by cutting off the white part. Save any of the outer leaves to toss in the skillet. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half.
In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium heat. Toss in the Brussels sprouts so cut side is face down. Cover and allow to cook for 3-4 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together the orange juice, maple syrup, vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper, and chili flakes (if using) in a small bowl.
Pour the glaze into the skillet and stir the brussels around in the glaze.
Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes, when the glaze starts to thicken. Toss in the chopped hazelnuts, coconut chips, and pomegranate and remove from heat.
