Brussels sprouts get a bad reputation sometimes, but roasting them changes everything. When you blast them with high heat, the outer leaves get crispy and the centers become tender and sweet. It is the best way to get even the pickiest eaters to enjoy their greens.

My secret for the best results is to make sure you do not crowd the pan. Giving them plenty of space helps them roast instead of steam. You will find this becomes a go to side dish for busy weeknight dinners or even holiday meals.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds fresh Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar or lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    Trim the tough ends off the Brussels sprouts and slice them in half through the core.

  3. 3

    Place the prepared sprouts onto a large sheet pan.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the olive oil over the sprouts and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Toss everything together until the sprouts are evenly coated with the oil.

  6. 6

    Arrange the sprouts on the pan so they are cut side down for the best crispiness.

  7. 7

    Roast for 20 to 25 minutes or until they are tender and the edges are dark brown.

  8. 8

    Drizzle with balsamic vinegar or lemon juice before serving if you like a little extra brightness.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. You can reheat them in a hot skillet for a few minutes to bring back that crunch. They also taste great shaved into a salad the next day.
