5. Coat the brussels sprouts with the butter mixture.
6. Transfer to the baking sheet.
7. Drizzle Parmesan and crushed red pepper on their top.
8. Bake and enjoy.
Final tips
- In order to get the PERFECT crisp outer edges and tender insides, you’ll want to roast at a pretty high temperature of 425 degrees F. The high temperature is essential to the exterior crispiness, interior tenderness, and the overall flavor transformation from semi-intense raw veggie to sweet caramelized veggie.
- It should take about 15 to 17 minutes to roast, depending on the size of your Brussels Sprouts.
- Five minutes before finishing baking the brussels sprouts, I flip them over to allow the Parmesan to melt.
How to store leftovers
You can make a big batch and store the brussels sprouts for 3-4 days. However in my opinion, They taste best freshly roasted.
- To Refrigerate: Store roasted Brussels sprouts with Parmesan in a glass container for up to four days in the fridge.
- To Reheat: in the oven, in a skillet, or in the microwave. Oven: Place desired amount of Brussels sprouts on a lightly oiled sheet pan. Rewarm in the oven at 350 degrees F for 5 or so minutes, until heated through. Skillet: medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring as needed to prevent scorching. Microwave for 30-60 seconds, depending on the amount. The microwave is easiest, but will make them a little bit soggy.
- To freeze: Vegetables generally don’t freeze well. Technically you can store them in an airtight container for up to 3 months, then thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating, but the texture won’t be the same.
Serving Suggestions
Roasted Brussels sprouts are a delicious side dish. Serve them plain, simply seasoned with olive oil, salt, and pepper, or dress them up! Drizzle them with a bit of balsamic vinegar or lemon juice and toss them with feta or Parmesan cheese, herbs, red pepper flakes, and nuts.
You also can serve them with:
