Make the popular crispy, glazed Brussels sprouts from Yard House at home using this straightforward recipe.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Toss the halved Brussels sprouts in the flour mixture until lightly coated. Shake off excess flour.
  2. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. Carefully add the coated Brussels sprouts to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 5 to 7 minutes, or until they are deep golden brown and crispy.
  4. Remove the sprouts with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  5. While the sprouts drain, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar, honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic.
  6. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  7. Place the crispy Brussels sprouts in a large bowl. Pour the warm glaze over the sprouts and toss gently until they are evenly coated.
  8. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, you can briefly toss the sprouts in ice water after trimming before coating them in flour.
  • Adjust the honey amount in the glaze if you prefer a sweeter or tangier finish.
  • If you prefer not to deep fry, you can roast the sprouts at 400°F (200°C) until tender, then toss them in the glaze. Frying yields the closest texture to the restaurant version.
