For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of balsamic glaze. To ensure even browning, avoid overcrowding the skillet. Cook the Brussels sprouts in batches if necessary. Freshly squeezed orange juice is highly recommended for the best flavor. The browning process is key to developing the nutty, sweet flavor of the sprouts. Don't be afraid to let them get nicely caramelized. You can substitute pecans or almonds for walnuts if preferred.
