Ingredients Needed

This is not your typical brussels sprouts recipe, like my shaved brussels sprouts recipe, that calls for a bit of oil, salt and pepper and thats it. Dont get me wrong, brussels sprouts that are seasoned simply are still SO DELISH, but this time i wanted to dress them up a bit! Here is everything you’ll need to gather up to make roasted brussel sprouts recipe balsamic:

• Brussels Sprouts
• Olive Oil
• Garlic
• Salt and Pepper
• Slivered Almonds
• Pompeian Balsamic Vinegar
• Honey
• Goat Cheese

How to cut Brussels Sprouts

Its time to prepare your sprouts for roasting! First, you’ll want to slice off the ends of each brussels sprout, discarding them. Also check for wilted or discolored leaves- these can also be discarded. Now, slice your sprouts in half and they are ready to be transformed into oven roasted balsamic brussel sprouts!

How to make Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

Roast

Turn on the oven and let it preheat. Toss the trimmed and halved brussels sprouts in a bowl with some oil and garlic and spread them evenly on a baking sheet. Place it in the oven and roast, flipping halfway through the cook time.

Toast

Arrange the slivered almonds on a small baking sheet and place them in the oven with the sprout to toast until they are lightly golden brown. Remove them from the oven and set aside.

Boil

While the sprouts are roasting, combine the honey and balsamic vinegar in a small pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat so that its lightly simmering, and cook until its reduced by half and coats the back of a teaspoon. Set aside to thicken.

DEVOUR

Once the brussels sprouts have finished roasting, place them in a bowl and toss with the balsamic reduction, almonds and goat cheese until everything is mixed well. Serve it up and enjoy!

How to make sure brussel sprouts are crispy?

If you want to make sure your brussel sprouts are crispy, set your oven to 400 degrees F or higher. Roasting them in an oven at low temperatures won’t let them brown properly. All you’ll end up with are boiled-up, soggy brussel sprouts. So you need to preheat your oven to the right temperature. and toss them with a good amount of oil before cooking them.

Serving Suggestions

While brussels sprouts have a flavor that pairs deliciously with many proteins and side dishes, for this recipe I recommend serving it with some air fryer pork tenderloin or perhaps some bacon wrapped chicken thighs. Add some air fryer potato wedges to the plate and you have a delicious, nutritious meal that the whole family will enjoy!

How to Store Leftover Brussel Sprouts?

Place your leftover brussel sprouts in an airtight container and store them in the fridge. This will keep for 3 to 4 days. To reheat them, allow them to go to room temperature and toss them in a well-oiled baking pan. Place them in a 350 degree F oven for 5 minutes until heated through.

FOR THIS RECIPE, I RECOMMEND:

• Pompeian Balsamic Vinegar
• Baking Sheet
• Large Mixing Bowl
• Small Pan
