Roasted Brussels Sprouts

ingredients

1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, halved, stems and outer leaves removed
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

glaze (optional)

¼ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup honey
OR
Balsamic glaze

roast it!

Preheat the oven to 425° F.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Directly on the prepared baking sheet, toss the Brussels sprouts with 2-3 tablespoons of the oil, the salt, and the pepper.
Roast for ~20 minutes stirring once halfway through, until tender and golden brown.

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Simmer until reduced by half, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes (the mixture should coat the back of a spoon). Let cool slightly.

Drizzle the glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if desired.
