Blistered Brussels Sprouts

Ingredients:
1 cup balsamic vinegar (make sure it doesn't have caramel coloring)
2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 lb. brussels sprouts, ends trimmed, cut in half lengthwise
¼ tsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt)
2 Tbsp. water
Preparation:
1. Place vinegar and garlic in small non-reactive saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; gently boil for 25 to 35 minutes, or until vinegar has become thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. (Watch vinegar carefully after 20 minutes of cooking to avoid burning.)
2. Remove from heat; cool. Remove garlic. Set aside.
3. Heat a medium cast iron (or nonstick) skillet over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Spray pan with coconut oil spray. Place brussels sprouts in skillet, cut side down, in a single layer; cook for 4 minutes, or until browned. (you might have to do this in multiple batches)
5. Add salt; cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
6. Add water; cook until water has evaporated.
7. Top each serving with 1 Tbsp. balsamic glaze; serve immediately.

Tip you can totally double to two pounds of Brussels sprouts and use the same amount of glaze. Just do in batches
