How to Make Truffle Parmesan Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Buckle up, because we’re about to turn your kitchen into a flavor paradise!
Step 1: Prep Work
Start by preheating your oven to a Legendary 400°F. While the oven is heating up, give your Brussels sprouts a good rinse and trim any tough ends or discolored leaves. Cut the sprouts in half, making sure they’re all a similar size for even cooking. Mince the garlic and grate the Parmesan cheese, then set them aside.
Step 2: Main Cooking Process
Grab a large baking sheet and drizzle it with a generous amount of olive oil. Toss the Brussels sprouts in the oil, making sure they’re evenly coated. Sprinkle the minced garlic, salt, and pepper over the sprouts and give everything a good stir to combine. Pop the tray into the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized.
Step 3: Final Steps/Assembly
Once the Brussels sprouts are perfectly roasted, remove the tray from the oven and drizzle the truffle oil over the top. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the sprouts, then give the whole thing a good toss to coat the sprouts evenly.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
For an extra Legendary touch, you can add a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley or a squeeze of lemon juice right before serving. This will help to brighten up the flavors and add a beautiful pop of color to your dish.
