Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Roasted Brussel Sprouts come out browned and tender if you halve them and cook them cut side down on a sheet pan. And I love that you can modify this roasted Brussels sprouts recipe so many different ways. Sometimes, I add lemon and parmesan or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for subtle sweetness and tang. For more flavor, add a little bacon or pancetta. It’s the perfect side dish for filet mignon, roasted chicken, air fryer whole chicken, chicken breast and more.
