Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly, trim off the stem ends, and cut them in halves.
Place the halved Brussels sprouts into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, finely mince the garlic and prepare the lime zest and juice.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime zest, lime juice, honey, and minced garlic.
Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a large serving bowl.
Drizzle the lime-garlic mixture over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss gently to combine.
If desired, sprinkle with freshly chopped cilantro for added flavor and color.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy on its own!
