These Roasted Brussels Sprouts offer a delightful combination of crispy edges and tender centers, making them a perfect side dish for any meal. The garlic and balsamic vinegar create a rich, savory flavor that’s perfectly balanced, while the optional Parmesan cheese adds an extra layer of indulgence.
- Ingredients:
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (optional)
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any outer leaves that are damaged. Cut them in half for even roasting.
- In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they aren’t overcrowded for the crispiest results.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Optional: In the last 2 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the Brussels sprouts with grated Parmesan cheese for a rich, savory finish.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh thyme if desired. Serve immediately.
