For the fried Brussels sprouts:
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Zest of 1 lemon
For the lemony dressing:
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:
Heat two tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet in a single layer, cut side down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
