Ingredients
  

Ingredients US CustomaryMetric
  • 1½ lb Brussels sprouts, halved, stems and ragged outer leaves removed (see note)
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and set an oven rack in the middle position. Line a baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  2. Directly on the prepared baking sheet, toss the Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of the oil, the salt, and the pepper. Roast, stirring once halfway through, until tender and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  3. Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of oil, the balsamic vinegar and the honey over the roasted Brussels sprouts. Toss to coat evenly. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, then serve.

Notes

Roasting the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature of 425°F (220°C) is key to achieving that perfect golden-brown exterior while keeping the inside tender. This technique caramelizes the natural sugars in the sprouts, enhancing their flavor and creating a delightful contrast in textures.
