Basic Roasted Brussels Sprouts

One of our favorite ways to enjoy Brussels sprouts, this recipe sees the sprouts roasted to release that earthy sweet flavor along with shallots and garlic.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 2-4

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 lb Brussels sprout
• 1⁄4 cup olive oil
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 1  shallot, minced
•  salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees and bring a cast iron skillet to super high heat over the stove.
2. Use a paring knife to remove the rough "stem" of the sprouts and peel off the leathery outer leaves.
3. Toss the sprouts into a mixing bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture into the cast iron skillet, making sure the sprouts are cut-side down. Immediately transfer to the oven.
4. Roast for five minutes without touching, then add the garlic and shallot and give a stir. Roast for five more minutes.
5. Remove from the oven and enjoy as a side dish or as part of a pasta or salad!
