Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Description
Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts are prepared by halving fresh sprouts and roasting them cut side down at 400°F until browned and soft. This roasting technique promotes caramelization on the flat side, giving a satisfying texture contrast between a crispy edge and tender interior. After roasting, the sprouts are tossed in a mixture of grain mustard and mayonnaise, creating a creamy, tangy coating. Fresh parsley adds a mild herbaceous note, while salt and black pepper season the dish.
These roasted Brussels sprouts serve well as a side dish paired with roasted or grilled meats and can add a flavorful green vegetable component to your meal. Serving them immediately preserves the crisp edges. Ensuring the sprouts are spaced adequately on the baking sheet prevents steaming, which maintains their texture.
Note that if making for more people, use multiple baking sheets to avoid overcrowding. This maintains the roasting environment that creates desired caramelization and prevents sogginess.
