  • 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Rinse the Brussels sprouts and trim off the ends. Cut the larger sprouts in half to ensure even cooking.

Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 6

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the lemon sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and lemon zest until smooth.

Step 7

Once the Brussels sprouts are finished roasting, transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 8

Drizzle the lemon sauce over the roasted Brussels sprouts and gently toss to coat evenly.
