- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cool water and trim the ends. Remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves.
Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the extra-virgin olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the Brussels sprouts.
Toss the Brussels sprouts thoroughly until they are well-coated with the olive oil and seasonings.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there's space between them for even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges are nicely browned and crispy.
Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle the lemon zest over the roasted Brussels sprouts for a fresh citrus kick.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley to add a touch of color and extra flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your heart-healthy perfectly roasted Brussels sprouts!
