Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, halved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine halved Brussels sprouts, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss until evenly coated.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese generously over the Brussels sprouts.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until sprouts are golden brown and crispy, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!
Notes
Tip: For extra flavor, try adding fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary before roasting.
To achieve maximum crispiness, ensure your Brussels sprouts are evenly cut and well-spaced on the baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding, as this can lead to steaming rather than roasting.
Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for heat or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for added flavor. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; reheat in the oven to retain crispness.
