Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup Walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut larger Brussels sprouts in half for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic until evenly coated.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for optimal roasting.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even browning.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, toast the walnuts. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add the chopped walnuts. Toast for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the Brussels sprouts are golden and tender, remove them from the oven and transfer to a serving dish.
Drizzle the roasted Brussels sprouts with lemon juice and sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the top. Add grated Parmesan cheese if desired for extra flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy this delicious and nutritious side dish!
