Garlic Parmesan Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients:
16 ounces Brussels sprouts
3 tablespoons olive oil (or melted butter)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. It’s time to get that oven nice and toasty for our Brussels sprout adventure!
In a large mixing bowl, let’s work some magic by combining the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts with the olive oil (or melted butter). Make sure each sprout is coated in that glorious oil for maximum flavor.
Now, sprinkle in the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Give everything a good toss, ensuring that every Brussels sprout is coated in that delicious seasoning blend. It’s like giving each sprout a flavor hug!
Spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet. This ensures that they roast evenly and develop that irresistible crispy exterior.
Pop those beauties into the preheated oven and let them roast away for about 20-25 minutes, or until they’re tender and slightly browned. Keep an eye on them – we want them to be perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
Once your Brussels sprouts are roasted to perfection, it’s time to sprinkle on the grated Parmesan cheese while they’re still hot. Watch as it melts slightly and coats each sprout in a blanket of cheesy goodness. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve your Garlic Parmesan Roasted Brussels Sprouts immediately as a delicious and healthy side dish that’ll steal the show at any meal. Whether you’re serving them up for a cozy family dinner or impressing guests at a dinner party, these Brussels sprouts are sure to be a hit!
So there you have it – a recipe that’s as easy to make as it is delicious. With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep time, you can whip up a dish that’s bursting with flavor and nutrition. So grab your Brussels sprouts and get ready to roast your way to vegetable bliss!
