Honey Balsamic Brussel Sprouts
Description
Brussels sprouts are halved and coated with olive oil, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper before roasting at 400°F. Roasting face down on a parchment-lined sheet pan encourages caramelization on the flat surface, yielding a mix of tender and slightly crispy textures.
While roasting, a mixture of balsamic vinegar and honey is prepared and then combined with the hot cooked sprouts to add a glossy, sweet-tart glaze. This finishing touch enhances their natural bitterness and gives a pleasant contrast.
Serve these sprouts immediately as a side that pairs well with roasted meats, poultry, or a main vegetarian meal. Their balanced flavor and texture offer a versatile complement for many menus.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Brussels sprouts
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Trim the stem off each brussel sprout and slice in half lengthwise. Place them in a large bowl and add in olive oil, salt and black pepper. Toss together to coat.
- Transfer brussels sprouts to prepared baking sheet and place each sprout flat side down. Roast in oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bottom of each sprout is roasted to your liking.
- While they're roasting, mix together balsamic vinegar and honey in a small bowl.
- Remove from oven, transfer to a serving bowl and add the honey and balsamic vinegar mixture. Toss together to coat and serve immediately.
