For a deeper flavor, consider adding a splash of balsamic vinegar during the last minute of cooking. If you don't have fresh thyme, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme can be substituted. However, fresh thyme provides a more vibrant aroma. Adjust the amount of spicy brown mustard to your liking, depending on your spice preference. Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the Brussels sprouts to achieve proper caramelization. For even better browning, avoid overcrowding the pan. If necessary, cook in batches.
