Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and peel off the outer leaves. Continue to separate as many leaves as possible from the sprouts until you reach the dense core. Set the cores aside for another recipe or discard them.
Place the Brussels sprout leaves in a large bowl and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and toss until the leaves are evenly coated.
Spread the leaves in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren't overcrowded to help them crisp up evenly.
Roast the leaves in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
While the leaves are roasting, prepare the glaze. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Stir in the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Simmer the mixture for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Once the Brussels sprout leaves are roasted to crispy perfection, transfer them to a serving bowl. Drizzle the glaze over the leaves and toss gently to coat.
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for a final touch of flavor and texture.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Inside Out Brussels Sprouts while they're warm and crispy!
