Recipe: Balsamic Glazed Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients:
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts) for added crunch
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Trim the ends and remove any yellow outer leaves from the Brussels sprouts. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to make the balsamic glaze.
Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with the balsamic glaze until evenly coated.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and caramelised, stirring halfway through.
Optional: Sprinkle chopped nuts over the Brussels sprouts during the last 5-10 minutes of roasting, tossing to combine.
Transfer the roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and enjoy as a flavourful and nutritious side dish.
