Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 5 sprays Olive oil spray
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleaning.
Wash the Brussels sprouts under running water to remove any dirt. Trim the stem ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves.
Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise for even cooking.
Place the halved Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl.
Lightly coat the Brussels sprouts with olive oil spray by spraying them around 5 times. Toss them gently to ensure even coating.
Add the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the bowl. Toss the sprouts again to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap to ensure they roast properly.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through. The sprouts should be golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving bowl.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately as a healthy side dish. Enjoy!
