Parmesan Brussel Sprouts
Description
Parmesan Brussel Sprouts roast Brussels sprouts tossed with olive oil, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until they reach a golden brown color. The roasting process enhances the natural sweetness and reduces bitterness, yielding a crisp exterior with a tender interior. Parmesan cheese adds a savory dimension that complements the earthy flavors of the sprouts. The garlic powder provides a subtle aromatic note without overpowering the dish.
These roasted sprouts can be served warm as a side to meats or as part of a vegetable medley, lending a pleasant crunch and rich taste. For extra heat, crushed red pepper flakes can be sprinkled on before serving.
Leftovers store well in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. Reheating in the oven helps maintain their crisp texture better than microwaving.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel the outer, yellow-ish leaves of the brussel sprouts off, trim the ends, then cut them in half.
- Place brussel sprouts in a large bowl, drizzle olive oil on top, and sprinkle with parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Transfer the brussel sprouts to the prepared baking sheet, and roast in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes, depending on their size. Shake the pan every few minutes for even roasting.
- Transfer the brussel sprouts to a serving dish and serve warm with crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheat in the oven to preserve the roasted texture and avoid sogginess.
