Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
- 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional add-ins:
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 minced garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or zest
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
- Pinch red pepper flakes
- 1 to 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a rimmed sheet pan in the oven to preheat.
- Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves.
- Halve the sprouts lengthwise (quarter very large ones) and pat them very dry with a clean towel.
- Toss sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add garlic powder if using.
- Remove the hot pan and spread sprouts cut-side down in a single layer with space between pieces.
- Roast for 18 to 22 minutes, until the cut sides are deep golden brown and the centers are tender. For extra crisp edges, broil 1 to 2 minutes at the end if needed.
- Finish with lemon juice, Parmesan, or balsamic glaze if desired. Taste and adjust salt. Serve hot.
Notes
Ensure sprouts are dry before roasting for maximum crispiness. Preheat your pan for better searing.
