Ingredients
- 1/2 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed, cleaned and any bad outside leaves removed
- 4–5 slices prosciutto, cut into 4 pieces (cut width-ways)
- 1/4–1/2 pound smoked gouda sliced into small squares (about the thickness of a slice of deli cheese)
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2–3 tablespoon honey *optional
- 1–2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F, rack in the middle. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; set aside.
- Cut the sprouts in half length-ways through the core and place them on the baking sheet.
- Drizzle them with oil and salt. Using your hands gently mix the sprouts around ensuring all sides are coated. *Make sure the sprouts are cut-side down before you place the pan in the oven.
- Roast for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, flip and place the pan back in the oven roasting for another 8-10 minutes or until the sprouts are tender.
- While the sprouts are in the oven place the balsamic vinegar and honey in a pan over medium heat.
- Bring the pan to boil, stirring frequently and reduce the heat to low. Allow to reduce to a syrup (about 10 minutes). The liquid should coat the back of a spoon. Be careful however now to burn this or have the heat up too high.
- Remove from the heat, place in a glass container and allow to cool.
- When the sprouts are done, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a minute or until you can touch them.
- Grab a tooth pick and assemble the skewers – place one sprout on first, followed by a quarter piece of the prosciutto ending with a slice of cheese.
- Once all of the skewers have been assembled, drizzle with the balsamic reduction.
- Store any remaining reduction in the fridge, covered.
- These skewers can be served warm, room temperature or cold.
