Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 5 seconds worth Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cups Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
Instructions
Start by washing the Brussels sprouts thoroughly. Trim the ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each Brussels sprout in half for more surface area to crisp.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the halved Brussels sprouts on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side-down. Lightly spray them with olive oil spray to coat evenly, about 5 seconds of spray time.
Season the Brussels sprouts with salt and black pepper to taste.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20 minutes. Halfway through the roasting time, stir the Brussels sprouts to ensure even cooking.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to simmer until reduced by half, about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The glaze should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting and are golden brown and crispy on the edges, remove them from the oven.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss gently to coat them evenly.
Serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer, and enjoy the low-fat, crispy, tangy delight!
