Grilled Brussel Sprouts in Foil
Description
Grilled Brussel Sprouts in Foil highlights fresh Brussels sprouts cut in half and seasoned with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Wrapped securely in foil, they cook on a medium-high grill for 20 to 25 minutes until tender. This method steams the sprouts gently while imparting a mild char from the grill, resulting in a balanced flavor and soft texture.
The sprouts can be served immediately while warm as a side dish or vegetable component in a meal. Their mild seasoning allows pairing with a variety of main dishes, adding a nutritious green element.
If preferred, this recipe can also be prepared in the oven by baking the foil packet at 400 degrees F for the same time, offering an alternative to grilling. Leftovers keep well for up to five days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts cut in half
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F). Cut the Brussel Sprouts in half. Wash the Brussel sprouts and pat them dry.
- Place the Brussel sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil on top and season them with the garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss the Brussel sprouts to coat them with the oil and seasonings.
- Place the Brussel sprouts on a large piece of foil. Seal the edges of the foil to form a foil packet.
- Place the foil packet on the grill and cook for approximately 20-25 minutes until the Brussel Sprouts are tender. Be careful when opening the foil packet as steam will release from the pack.
- Serve immediately while warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Leftover grilled Brussels sprouts should be stored in an airtight container and can be kept in the refrigerator for up to five days.
- To prepare indoors, bake the foil packet in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, ensuring the sprouts become tender.
