01 - 1½ lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

02 - 3 tbsp honey
03 - 2 tbsp Sriracha sauce
04 - 2 tbsp soy sauce (use tamari for gluten-free)

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, toss Brussels sprouts with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated. Arrange them cut side down on the prepared baking sheet.
03 - Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy on the edges.
04 - While Brussels sprouts roast, whisk together honey, Sriracha, soy sauce, rice vinegar, olive oil, and minced garlic in a small bowl.
05 - Once Brussels sprouts are done, transfer them to a large bowl. Drizzle with the honey Sriracha sauce and toss to coat evenly.
06 - Return the glazed sprouts to the baking sheet. Roast for an additional 3-4 minutes to caramelize the sauce slightly.
07 - Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and chopped cilantro or scallions, if desired. Serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The way the sauce caramelizes in the oven creates these sticky, sweet-and-spicy edges that are completely addictive
  • It comes together in under 40 minutes but tastes like something from a restaurant
  • Even Brussels sprout skeptics find themselves reaching for seconds
02 -
  • Drying the sprouts thoroughly after washing them is crucial for proper crisping. Any excess moisture will make them steam instead of roast.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet or the sprouts will steam and never get crispy. Use two sheets if necessary.
03 -
  • For extra crispiness, broil the glazed sprouts for 1 to 2 minutes at the end. Watch them like a hawk because the honey can burn quickly.
  • Double the sauce if you want leftovers. The sprouts absorb more than you expect while roasting.
