Notes
Top tips
Tahini (or almond butter) helps to cut the heat from the sriracha. If you love really spicy food, add crushed red pepper flakes, garlic chili sauce or cayenne pepper for more heat.
Start with a hot pan (use cast iron or stainless steel and preheat). Allow the brussels to caramelize first before adding sauce.
Make this Whole30 by using a Whole30 approved sriracha. You could also use hot sauce if you can’t find any sriracha.
If you would like this to be a bit sweeter, add 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup when you add the coconut aminos and sriracha.
Storage
Store these in the fridge for up to 5 days in a well sealed container.
