Here's an easy, yet stylish vegetable dish that's perfect for holiday entertaining. Grind whole nutmeg with a rasp for the freshest taste.

Ingredients

1 lb  (500 g)  Brussels Sprouts, stems trimmed and cut with an X
2 tbsp  (30 mL)  butter
3/4 lbs  (375 g)  chestnuts, roasted and peeled
1/2 tsp  (2 mL)  salt
1 tsp  (5 mL)  ground nutmeg

Preparation

Bring 2 inches (5 cm) of water to a boil in a medium saucepan fitted with a vegetable steaming basket over high heat. Add brussels sprouts, reduce heat to medium-high, cover and cook 12 to 15 minutes or until tender. Drain, rinse under cold water and drain again.

Melt butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add chestnuts and cook, shaking pan occasionally, for 4 minutes or until chestnuts are golden-brown. Add brussels sprouts and salt and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with nutmeg.

Makes 4 servings.
