Ingredients

• 500 grams Brussels sprouts
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cool water, then trim off the stem ends and remove any outer leaves that appear wilted or damaged.

Step 3

Cut the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise. If they are very large, quarter them for more even cooking.

Step 4

Place the halved Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 5

Toss the Brussels sprouts until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.

Step 6

Spread the Brussels sprouts out onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they have space to roast instead of steam.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring or flipping the Brussels sprouts halfway through to ensure even browning.

Step 8

Check for doneness: the Brussels sprouts should be golden-brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and if desired, sprinkle the Brussels sprouts with freshly grated Parmesan cheese while they are still warm.

Step 10

Serve immediately as a side dish and enjoy!
