Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Sharp knife
  • Parchment paper (optional)
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ pounds Brussels sprouts
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze optional, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Brussels Sprouts:
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Slice the sprouts in half lengthwise for even roasting.
  • Season the Brussels Sprouts:
  • In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder (if using), salt, and pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated.
  • Arrange on the Baking Sheet:
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (optional for easier cleanup). Spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer, cut side down. This helps them caramelize beautifully.
  • Roast the Brussels Sprouts:
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through. The Brussels sprouts are ready when they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
  • Serve:
  • Transfer the roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving dish. Drizzle with balsamic glaze if desired, or serve as-is for a simple, savory side.
