Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (preferably freshly grated for best flavor)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven is crucial for getting crisp edges without sogginess.
- Toss the halved Brussels sprouts in a large bowl with olive oil, minced garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese into the bowl and toss until the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated to form the crisp crust.
- Arrange the sprouts cut side down on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they don’t overlap.
- Roast for about 20-25 minutes, checking at 15 minutes. Aim for crispy, golden edges and a tender inside. For extra crispness, roast a few more minutes but watch carefully to avoid burning.
- Remove from oven and immediately toss with chopped parsley, thyme, and lemon juice to brighten the dish.
- Let rest for a minute to let flavors settle before serving.
