Ingredients of Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Glaze
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions for making Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Glaze:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts:
In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Roast the Brussels Sprouts:
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges, shaking the pan halfway through the cooking time.
Make the Balsamic Glaze:
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until it has thickened to a glaze consistency. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Combine and Serve:
Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving bowl. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
Enjoy:
Serve the roasted Brussels sprouts with balsamic glaze immediately, while they are still warm and crispy. Enjoy as a delicious side dish or a light main course.
Tips:
For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
You can prepare the balsamic glaze in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Simply reheat it slightly before using.
