Step 1

Prep your steamer. You can find microwave steamers in any kitchen store, but you can use a large, BPA-free, microwave-safe bowl with a lid and a microwave-safe colander that fits inside.

Step 2

Add an inch of water to the bottom of the bowl.

Step 3

Place the sprouts in the colander and lid the bowl loosely.

Step 4

Microwave until tender: check by piercing a few sprouts with a paring knife. The knife should slide in without any resistance (see Recipe Note #1).

Step 5

Carefully (avoid steam burns!) remove the colander with the sprouts and set aside. Drain the water from the bowl and dry.

Step 6

Add the sprouts back to the bowl, along with the butter, salt, and pepper. Mix until the butter is melted and toss to completely coat the sprouts. Serve.
