Have I mentioned that I love brussels sprouts? Yes, I guess I did. All I'm saying is if you are a sprouts hatah, try cooking them different ways. The easiest--and one of the tastiest--is roasting. I used to think of roasting in simplistic terms until I realized that following a few extra steps could make a big difference in flavor:
- Preheat your oven to 475 degrees
- Trim and cut sprouts evenly
- In a large bowl drizzle olive oil, salt, and red pepper flakes (if you want a lot of kick). Use your hands to mix well
- Line a heavy duty baking sheet with parchment paper
- Place sprouts cut side down
- Roast for 15 minutes or until tender
- Top with lemon zest or parmesan
Yum. Yum. Yum.
