Scale
Vegetables
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
For Roasting
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Honey Sriracha Sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Garnish
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- Chopped green onions to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to get it ready for roasting the Brussels sprouts.
- Toss Brussels Sprouts: In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
- Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, and garlic powder until smooth to create a flavorful glaze.
- Roast Brussels Sprouts: Spread the coated Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
- Glaze and Toss: Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven and immediately drizzle the honey Sriracha sauce over them. Toss the sprouts thoroughly to coat them in the sticky sauce.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the glazed Brussels sprouts for added texture and flavor. Serve warm.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of Sriracha sauce based on your preferred spice level.
- For extra crispiness, make sure the Brussels sprouts are spread out well on the baking sheet without overcrowding.
- Using fresh green onions adds brightness, but you can substitute with chives or omit if preferred.
- This dish pairs well with grilled meats or as part of an Asian-inspired meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated gently in the oven or on the stovetop.
