Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 16 ounces (454 grams) Brussels sprouts
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 garlic cloves
Seasonings and Spices:
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
Oil and Fat:
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC), positioning the rack in the center of the oven.
- Meticulously trim the stem ends of Brussels sprouts and slice each one vertically into halves.
- Prepare a rimmed baking sheet by lightly greasing or lining with parchment paper.
- Thoroughly blot Brussels sprouts dry using paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a spacious mixing bowl, combine Brussels sprouts with olive oil, Italian seasoning, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
- Gently toss the ingredients to ensure each Brussels sprout is uniformly coated with seasonings.
- Arrange the seasoned Brussels sprouts on the prepared baking sheet in a single, even layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through cooking to promote even browning.
- Brussels sprouts are ready when they develop a golden-brown exterior and crispy edges.
- Transfer the roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant finish.
Notes
- Ensure Brussels sprouts are completely dry before roasting to achieve maximum crispiness and prevent steaming.
- Slice sprouts evenly to guarantee uniform cooking and prevent some pieces from burning while others remain undercooked.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for richer flavor and better melting compared to pre-packaged alternatives.
- Arrange sprouts with enough space between them on the baking sheet to promote proper caramelization and prevent soggy texture.
