Description
Delicious roasted Brussels sprouts with a hint of lemon and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 lemon
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Wash and dry the Brussels sprouts thoroughly then trim the stems and cut each one in half for even roasting.
- Place the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl and toss with olive oil, salt and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet cut side down leaving space between pieces for proper browning.
- Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown and the centers are fork tender. Tip: avoid stirring too often to allow caramelization.
- Remove from the oven, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the sprouts and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese while hot. Tip: serve immediately for best texture.
Notes
- For an added kick, consider sprinkling some red pepper flakes before roasting.
- These Brussels sprouts are best served hot and fresh out of the oven.
