Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts Recipe
Description
The Air Fryer Brussels Sprouts Recipe starts with rinsing and cutting Brussels sprouts into bite-sized pieces. They are seasoned with olive oil, garlic parsley salt, and Parmesan cheese before being placed in an air fryer. The sprouts air fry at 390°F for 12 minutes, shaken halfway to encourage even browning. Precooked bacon is then added, and the sprouts cook an additional 5 minutes to crisp the bacon and meld flavors.
This method creates Brussels sprouts browned on the edges with tender centers. The seasoning mix adds a garlic-herb note complemented by the salty, nutty Parmesan. The addition of bacon brings smoky saltiness and extra texture contrast. Cooking in the air fryer reduces oil usage compared to pan-frying while maintaining crispness.
The dish is served immediately to enjoy the crisp texture and savory flavors. It makes a convenient and flavorful side vegetable for a variety of meals or a tasty snack. The recipe uses straightforward ingredients and simple air fryer technique.
