Method

SET SAIL

  1. 1

    Preheat and prepare

    Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  2. 2

    Trim and halve Brussels sprouts

    Rinse 1 lb Brussels sprouts. Remove any yellow outer leaves, trim the stem ends, and cut each sprout in half.

  3. 3

    Toss with oil and season

    In a large bowl, toss the halved sprouts with 2 tbs olive oil, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Roast until caramelized

    Spread the coated sprouts on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20–25 minutes, turning once halfway, until the edges are caramelized and centers are tender.

  5. 5

    Add garlic mid-roast

    During the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle 2 minced garlic cloves over the sprouts to release aroma without burning.

  6. 6

    Finish with lemon and honey

    Remove the sheet from the oven. Drizzle with 1 tbs lemon juice and sprinkle 1 tsp lemon zest and 1 tsp honey. Toss gently to coat; return to the oven for 1–2 minutes if a glaze is desired.

  7. 7

    Add crunch and cheese

    Remove from oven. Sprinkle 0.25 cup toasted hazelnuts and 2 tbs grated Parmesan cheese over the sprouts. If desired, return to the oven for 1 minute to warm the cheese.

  8. 8

    Season and serve

    Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Transfer to a serving dish and serve warm.
