These Brussels sprouts and mushrooms are dressed in mirin and shichimi togarashi for a lightly spicy, charred side dish that's perfect any time of year.
Heat 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 4–6 minutes (depending on variety) until they brown and crisp up. Season with salt and pepper.
Char the Brussels sprouts:
Add the Brussels sprouts and continue cooking until they char and begin to soften, about 8–10 minutes depending on the size. Stir occasionally and adjust the heat as necessary to prevent them from burning. Add a sprinkle of salt.
Deglaze the skillet:
Add the mirin to deglaze the skillet; use your spoon to lift up anything stuck to the bottom. Toss to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes, and then add the shichimi togarashi. Cook for 1 minute more. Turn off the heat.
To serve:
Spoon the Brussels sprouts and mushrooms on to a serving platter. Sprinkle more shichimi togarashi on top if you like. Finish with minced scallions. Enjoy!
