- 12 ounces Brussels sprouts
Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Coarse Black Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) to ensure it’s hot enough for roasting.
- Prepare Brussels Sprouts: Trim and cut the Brussels sprouts into bite-sized pieces, slicing larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.
- Season: In a mixing bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts with the olive oil, salt, and coarse black pepper. Toss well to coat all pieces evenly.
- Roast: Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place in the preheated oven and roast for 25 minutes, stirring every 5 to 10 minutes to promote even browning and prevent burning.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add minced garlic or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before roasting.
- Serve as a side dish to complement roasted meats or fish.
- Adjust seasoning to taste; some prefer adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the baking sheet to allow proper roasting and crispiness.
