Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 3 pieces Celery stalks
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 piece Lemon
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Wash and trim the Brussels sprouts by removing the tough outer leaves and slicing them in half lengthwise.

Step 3

Place the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until golden and tender.

Step 5

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, wash the celery stalks and slice them diagonally into thin pieces.

Step 6

Mince the garlic cloves and zest the lemon, then cut the lemon in half and set aside.

Step 7

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat.

Step 8

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the sliced celery. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the celery is slightly tender but still retains some crunch.

Step 9

Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, combine them with the sautéed celery in the skillet.

Step 10

Squeeze the juice of half the lemon over the dish and sprinkle with lemon zest. Add chili flakes, if using, and toss to combine.

Step 11

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 12

Serve warm, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
