Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold water to clean them. Trim the ends and remove any outer leaves that might be yellowed or damaged.
Cut the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise. If you have any particularly large ones, quarter them to ensure even cooking.
Place the halved Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil, then sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and dried thyme.
Toss the Brussels sprouts until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the Brussels sprouts out on a large baking sheet in a single layer. For optimal crispness, make sure they are not overcrowded. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges are browned and crispy, stirring once halfway through to ensure even roasting.
Remove from the oven and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the roasted Brussels sprouts before serving for a bright, fresh finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
