Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs (675g) Brussels sprouts
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • zest of 1/2 lemon optional
  • 1/2 cup (45g) grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup (20g) Panko breadcrumbs
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Clean the Brussels sprouts, remove the discolored outer leaves, trim the bottoms, and pat dry with paper towels.
    1 1/2 lbs (675g) Brussels sprouts
  • Cut medium and large Brussels sprouts in half and leave smaller ones whole (for this recipe, cut in half brussel sprouts are better but you also don't want to overcook smaller sprouts).
  • Add the Brussels sprouts to a large bowl and toss with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and lemon zest until evenly coated.
    1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, zest of 1/2 lemon
  • Add grated Parmesan and breadcrumbs, season to taste with salt and pepper, and toss until evenly coated.
    1/2 cup (45g) grated parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup (20g) Panko breadcrumbs
  • Grease a large baking sheet (preferably dark-colored) with vegetable oil or baking spray.
  • Add Brussels sprouts to the baking sheet and place them cut side-down. Space them apart as much as you can, making sure that most of the parmesan breadcrumb mixture is under the Brussels sprouts (it will create a crispy crust at the bottom of the Brussels sprouts). If I have many loose leaves on the baking sheet, don't worry. I stack most of them up to resemble brussel sprout halves and leave the rest of them just as they are. Those leaves will be as crispy like chips and you'll be fighting over them (they're so good).
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until well browned and crispy. Keep an eye on them after the 15-minute mark - they can burn quickly and every oven bakes differently (browning will also depend on how apart they lay on the baking sheet and what color the baking sheet is).
  • When ready transfer to a plate, sprinkle with the remaining browned (but not burned) crispy bits of parmesan and breadcrumbs that will be left on the baking sheet.
  • Enjoy!
