Description

These crispy roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon are golden, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. They’re quick to make, loaded with texture, and perfect as a side dish or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the sprouts on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down, in a single layer.
  4. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are crisp and golden brown.
  5. Remove from the oven and drizzle with balsamic vinegar if using. Toss gently to coat.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Make sure Brussels sprouts are dry before roasting to get maximum crispiness.
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. Use two sheets if needed.
  • For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of parmesan cheese after roasting.
