Ingredients
- 1½ lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 3 tbsp olive oil divided
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp honey
Instructions
- Prep & Preheat
- Preheat your oven to 425°F and position a rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty foil for easy cleanup.
- Season & Roast
- On the baking sheet, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them out in a single layer. Roast for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they're golden and tender.
- Glaze & Finish
- Remove from the oven and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Toss well to coat evenly.
- Serve & Enjoy
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm as a side dish or top with freshly grated parmesan for extra flavor.
Notes
If your Brussels sprouts vary in size, cut the larger ones into quarters so they roast evenly with the smaller halves.
