Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions:

  1. Pat the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts completely dry with a kitchen towel to ensure a crisp texture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the sprouts on a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer, placing them cut-side down to maximize caramelization.
  4. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until the edges are mahogany-colored and the centers are tender.
  5. While roasting, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey in a small bowl.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately drizzle the balsamic glaze over the hot sprouts, tossing gently with a spatula to coat.
