This simple recipe creates perfectly roasted brussels sprouts with crispy edges and tender centers, seasoned with garlic and a touch of salt and pepper. A fantastic side dish for any meal!
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, combine the trimmed and halved brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sprouts are evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overcrowded to allow for even roasting.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the brussels sprouts are tender-crisp and caramelized on the edges. You can toss them halfway through roasting for more even browning.
Remove from oven and serve immediately as a delicious side dish.
Notes
For an extra touch of flavor, drizzle with balsamic glaze or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat.
