These Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts get crispy caramelized edge when roasted – they are the perfect side to any meal.
Roasting Brussels Sprouts brings out the rich almost sweet flavor. I love the texture of the crispy edges cooked with the olive oil and salt. Even my kids like these!
Be sure to use a rimmed baking sheet, so the oil doesn’t drip off the sides – I love these rimmed baking sheets!
These These Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts are really a great side dish for any meal – and they work especially well at Thanksgiving when there are so many other complex sides, it’s nice to have something so simple.
Simple Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Equipment
- parchment paper
- rimmed baking sheet
Ingredients
- 1 lb. fresh Brussels sprouts
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cut Brussel sprouts, by first cutting off the bottom edge, then slicing in half lengthwise, from the flat edge to the top.
- Arrange cut Brussels sprouts on the parchment-lined baking sheet, in a single layer.
- Drizzle with olive oil then toss with your hands (or 2 large spoons) to coat evenly.
- Once evenly coated, sprinkle the salt generously over the top. I love flaked sea salt for this recipe.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are lightly charred, and a fork goes through them easily. Watch them closely at the end to ensure they don't burn.
- Transfer to a bowl, and if desired add a little more salt to taste. Enjoy!
