For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of balsamic vinegar or a pinch of red pepper flakes during the last minute of cooking. Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the Brussels sprouts to achieve optimal browning and prevent them from becoming soggy. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Some prefer a more savory dish, while others enjoy a sweeter glaze.
