Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • For brussels sprouts:
  • 1 lb. brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • For balsamic reduction:
  • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with olive oil and spices, until evenly coated.
  3. Lay out in one layer on baking sheet. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until browned at the edges.*
  4. While brussels sprouts are still in the oven, heat balsamic in a saucepan over medium-high heat until begins to simmer.**
  5. Lower flame to simmer. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes. The balsamic will begin to reduce and thicken. When it is sticky enough to coat the back of a spoon, it's ready.
  6. Drizzle over brussels sprouts and serve immediately.***
Notes
*Actual baking time will depend on how burnt/crispy you like your vegetables.
**Make sure to put the stove fan on, or open a window, as the smell of vinegar is extremely strong.
***If preparing in advance, then gently reheat the reduction with a tiny bit of water added, before serving.
