Place brussels sprouts in microwave-safe dish. Add about 1-inch of water.

Microwave for 2 minutes. Allow to cool.

Heat a large frying pan over medium heat

When brussels sprouts have cooled enough to handle, cut into quarters and discard the loose outer leaves

Add olive oil to pan. Once oil is hot, add sliced onions and brussels sprouts.

When onions have softened, about 3 minutes, add ground sausage and all spices to pan.
