Garlic Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step 2

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 3

Trim ends from Brussels sprouts and cut in half. If sprouts are very large, cut them into quarters.

Step 4

Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Use a rubber spatula to toss the Brussels sprouts until they are evenly coated, then arrange in an even layer on the baking sheet.

Step 6

Roast on middle rack of oven for 15 minutes. While the Brussels sprouts roast, finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 7

After 15 minutes, open oven and sprinkle the garlic over the Brussels sprouts. Toss lightly with a rubber spatula to distribute the garlic. Continue roasting until the garlic is fragrant and the Brussels sprouts are tender and slightly charred, 8-10 minutes.

Step 8

Check to see that Brussels sprouts are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Step 9

Serve immediately.
