Ingredient Notes
- Brussels sprouts: Fresh brussels sprouts are firm and green in color. Avoid any with wilted or yellowing leaves.
- Oil: Extra virgin olive oil.
- Seasoning: Granulated garlic is a great way to impart garlic flavor to roasted veggies without the black bits that result when you cook fresh garlic at a high temperature. You’ll also need some salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Fresh herbs: Several sprigs of fresh rosemary.
- Balsamic glaze: Most stores carry bottled balsamic glaze now and it’s such a great shortcut! I keep a bottle of Nonna Pia’s in my fridge at all times and it’s a quick way to add flavor to roasted veggies and more.
How to Trim Brussels Sprouts
Use a sharp knife to trim the woody stem end of each Brussels sprout. Since sprouts can vary in size – from tiny to large – it’s important to ensure they’re similar in size for even roasting. If you have any larger sprouts, simply slice them in half before placing them in the oven.
How to Make Rosemary Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the trimmed brussels sprouts on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle them with the olive oil and season with granulated garlic, salt, and pepper, and toss to distribute the oil and seasoning.
- Place the rosemary sprigs on top of the sprouts and transfer the baking sheet to the oven preheated to 425 F degrees F. Roast, stirring with a spatula after the first 10 minutes and once or twice more before the end of the cooking time. Test for doneness by piercing a sprout with the tip of a sharp knife and when tender, remove them from the oven.
- Allow the sprouts to rest for 2 or 3 minutes, then remove the rosemary sprigs and pull any remaining leaves off the stems and scatter them over the sprouts. Discard the stems. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and toss lightly.
