Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh Brussels sprouts, halved
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup raw sliced almonds
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place the Brussels sprouts on a sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and toss to combine.
- Bake the Brussel sprouts, cut side down, for 20 minutes.
- Remove from oven and top Brussels sprouts with sliced almonds. Bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- Place the roasted Brussels sprouts and almonds in a bowl, top with Parmesan cheese and the juice of half a lemon. Toss to combine and serve.
Notes
- Choose Fresh Sprouts: Look for Brussels sprouts that are firm, bright green, and free of wilted outer leaves. Fresh Brussels sprouts roast more evenly and have better flavor.
- Don't Skimp on Olive Oil: Plenty of olive oil is also a big key to getting Brussels sprouts beautifully crispy. Toss until every sprout is lightly coated!
- Roast Cut Side Down: This is the secret step! Placing each sprout cut side down creates more contact with the hot sheet pan, which is what gives you that gorgeous, caramelized, crispy surface. It's worth the extra minute. Trust me!
