Description
The most delicious Brussels sprouts you’ve ever had! A super simple recipe and just 20 minutes in the oven gives you the crispiest, most flavorful Brussels sprouts that make a perfect side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 20–25 small Brussels sprouts
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 3 cups cooked quinoa (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Cover a baking pan (or toaster oven rack) with foil.
- Rinse and trim the Brussels, then cut each in half from end to end. If they are large, you may want to quarter them to ensure even cooking.
- Arrange the sprouts on the baking sheet as shown in the image above. Drizzle the olive oil over the sprouts, then sprinkle the salt and pepper over that. I recommend using freshly ground pepper via a pepper mill for this. The taste of freshly ground is so much more intense, and better in every way than the pre-ground version.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes if in a toaster oven, and up to 30 minutes in a normal oven. The Brussels should be nice and crispy on the edges when done. Serve by themselves, or over quinoa or rice, if desired.
