Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 450g Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder optional, for extra flavor
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional, for topping

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Small saucepan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Tongs or spatula (for tossing Brussels sprouts)

Method
 

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Cut the ends off the Brussels sprouts and pluck off any bruised leaves. Now, halving the Brussels sprouts will make sure that they all cook evenly.
  3. Season Brussels Sprouts: Add the halved Brussels sprouts to a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder if you are using. Step 4: Toss Brussels sprouts well and make sure they are evenly coated.
  4. Roast Brussels Sprouts: Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in a preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  5. Make the glaze: While the Brussels sprouts roast, make the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey. Cook over medium-low and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes or until the glaze thickens just slightly.
  6. Toss with Glaze: When the Brussels sprouts are roasted and crispy, take them out of the oven. Drizzle balsamic glaze over Brussels sprouts and toss gently to coat evenly.
  7. Serve: Transfer the glazed Brussels sprouts to a serving platter. Sprinkle-grated Parmesan cheese over the top, if desired.

Notes

Customization: You can customize this recipe by adding extra flavorings such as red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or bacon bits for an additional savory flavor.
