Summer Brussel Sprouts & Corn

This summer brussel sprouts & corn sides, is now one of my absolute favorites and a new go-to side dish. Perfect for a summer cookout, an elegant evening in, or just one day of the week.

Ingredients (for 2 veggie-loving adults, or 4 side-portions)

1 lb brussel sprouts
2 ears of corn, kernels freshly cut off of the cob
3 tbs olive oil, divided
1/2 lemons-worth of juice
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
salt & pepper

Directions

1. In a large pan heat 1 tbs olive oil over medium-high heat. Cut brussel sprouts in half and add to pan.  Sprinkle with lemon juice, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and generous pinches of salt & pepper.   
2. Shake and stir to coat, continue to shake every so often, to enable a caramelized sear but not an over-cook on one side.
3. After about 10 minutes (adding more olive oil as needed), when brussel sprouts are browned, soft on the outside, but a bit hard n crunch on the inside, add fresh corn kernels to the pan.
4.   .....
