- 2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze, 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled), 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, cut-side down. This helps them crisp up.
- Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and deeply caramelized. Flip them halfway through for even cooking.
- If using, toss with balsamic glaze, crumbled bacon, or Parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, ensure your Brussels sprouts are dry before tossing with oil.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet; use two if necessary to allow air circulation.
- High heat is key to achieving that perfect crisp.
