Steps

1

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C for fan-assisted ovens). Prepare the Brussels sprouts: remove any loose or damaged outer leaves, trim the tough ends, and halve any larger sprouts. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

2

Roasting

Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and tender-crisp, shaking the pan once or twice during cooking to ensure even roasting.

3

Make the Sauce

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the garlic sauce. Peel and mince the garlic cloves. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the chopped fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

4

Serving

Remove the roasted Brussels sprouts from the oven and immediately drizzle with the garlic sauce. Gently toss to coat all the sprouts. Serve warm as a side dish or a light main course.

Extra Tips

Always remove the outer leaves of the Brussels sprouts and trim the stem for more even roasting.

If you like a spicy kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the Brussels sprouts before roasting.

For the garlic sauce, you can use fresh chives or dill instead of parsley if you prefer a different flavor.
