Description
Deliciously roasted Brussels sprouts topped with melted Parmesan cheese, perfect as a side dish.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the Brussels sprouts. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Drizzle with balsamic vinegar if desired before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes before roasting for a spicy kick.
- Try substituting the Parmesan cheese with crumbled feta or goat cheese for a different taste profile.
