Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoons Honey
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for maximum caramelization.
Roast in the oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and golden brown, and the sprouts are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the sprouts roast, prepare the balsamic glaze by combining balsamic vinegar, honey, and minced garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Bring the glaze to a gentle simmer and reduce the heat to low. Let it cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving bowl and drizzle the balsamic glaze evenly over the top. Toss to coat.
Optional: Sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese over the Brussels sprouts for an extra layer of flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer. Enjoy!
