Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • 1 rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Toss the Brussels sprouts with the olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Spread the sprouts cut-side down on a rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, until deeply browned on the cut sides and tender when pierced with a fork.

Notes

For the best browning, arrange the sprouts cut-side down with space between them. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days; freezing is not recommended. Avocado oil can replace the olive oil if needed.
