In a spacious deep skillet, warm the broth over medium-high heat. Once it begins to bubble, incorporate the Brussels sprouts and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Cook while stirring occasionally until the sprouts are tender yet still retain some crunch, which should take about 8 to 10 minutes. Afterward, remove the skillet from the heat.
