Chili Honey Lime Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Description
This recipe for Chili Honey Lime Roasted Brussels Sprouts begins by trimming and halving fresh sprouts, then coating them evenly with olive oil, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Roasting at high heat until the edges are crispy and brown develops a roasted flavor and crisp texture. Tossing the sprouts halfway through ensures even cooking.
After roasting, a glaze made from lime zest, lime juice, and honey is warmed briefly so it can be whisked smoothly and then drizzled over the hot sprouts. Tossing to coat distributes the glaze evenly, combining spicy, sweet, and tangy elements. The finished dish showcases a crunchy exterior with a tender center and a lively glaze lending brightness.
This preparation works well as an accompaniment to grilled or roasted meats or as part of a vegetable-focused meal. It should be served soon after mixing to maintain the contrasting textures and fresh citrus flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved lengthwise
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- kosher salt fresh ground, to taste
- black pepper fresh ground, to taste
- 1 lime zested and juiced
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450° F.
- In a large bowl combine the brussels sprouts, olive oil, chili powder, salt and pepper. Toss together to coat. Dump the brussels sprouts onto a rimmed baking sheet and roast for approximately 20 minutes or until the edges are crisp and brown. Halfway through the cooking time give them a toss to ensure that they brown and roast evenly.
- In a small bowl add the lime zest, juice and honey. Microwave for 10 seconds so the mixture can easily be whisked together.
- Return the roasted brussels sprouts to the large bowl and pour the honey lime mixture over them. Toss to coat and serve immediately.
