CRISPY CHILI BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Toss the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Season with 1 teaspoon salt.
- Place the sprouts cut side down in the skillet and let brown, 2 to 3 minutes. (Don't crowd the sprouts, if you have to, brown in 2 batches, removing the first batch to a plate.) Once the sprouts are browned, toss in the skillet and roast in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove and toss with the chili flakes and the remaining tablespoon of the oil. Roast until tender, 6 to 7 minutes. As soon as the sprouts are out of the oven, sprinkle with the lemon zest and squeeze the lemon half over the top. Toss well. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve.
CRISPY ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND SHALLOTS
Slivered brussels sprouts and shallots caramelize, getting crisp and golden if you roast them at high heat. A dash of Worcestershire and a drizzle of lemon juice add just enough tang and acidity to round them out, without obscuring their natural sweetness. If you're not cooking for a crowd, feel free to halve the recipe and use one baking sheet. Serve these as a simple side dish to roast meats or fish, or use it to top a grain bowl, adding a fried or jammy egg for protein.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, toss together brussels sprouts, shallots, olive oil and salt. Evenly divide brussels sprouts mixture between two rimmed 13-by-18-inch baking sheets, spreading everything into one layer. Top with thyme sprigs.
- Roast, stirring once, until brussels sprouts and shallots are tender, golden and lightly charred in spots, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together garlic, Worcestershire and lemon juice.
- As soon as brussels sprouts emerge from oven, immediately drizzle with Worcestershire dressing, tossing to combine. Taste and add more salt, lemon juice, or Worcestershire if needed. Top with grated Parmesan if you like and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right Brussels sprouts. Look for firm, tightly-packed sprouts with bright green leaves. Avoid any sprouts that are yellow, wilted, or have brown spots.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts properly. Cut off the stem end and any discolored or damaged leaves. If the sprouts are large, you can also cut them in half or quarters.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature. This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the Brussels sprouts will steam instead of roast. Make sure there is enough space between the sprouts so that they can roast evenly.
- Toss the Brussels sprouts in oil and seasonings before roasting. This will help them brown and develop flavor. You can use olive oil, avocado oil, or melted butter. Season the sprouts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other spices you like.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts until they are tender and slightly charred. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes. You can check the sprouts by piercing them with a fork. They should be tender, but still have a slight bite to them.
- Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately. They are best when served hot and crispy. You can garnish them with fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or thyme.
Conclusion:
Roasted Brussels sprouts with chile caramel are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be roasted in the oven or on the stovetop. The chile caramel adds a sweet and spicy flavor that complements the Brussels sprouts perfectly. Whether you are serving them for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner, roasted Brussels sprouts with chile caramel are sure to be a hit.
