These aren't your grandmother's twists, which she probably did at the sock-hop to the latest Chubby Checker record. No, these twists, with nutty Parmesan, are crunchy, flavorful delights, adding a bit of whimsy to this delectable dinner of meaty steak and fresh Brussels. Twisting the night away? Hardly; this meal comes together in less than an hour. Come on, little miss... and put this meal in your basket. Tip: You don't need Paul Sorvino wielding a razor blade to get super thin slices of garlic. (That's from “Goodfellas,” for all you non-movie fans.) Just be sure to tuck the fingertips of your garlic-holding hand for safety, and use your knuckle as your guide.
