Description

Crispy Parmesan-Crusted Roasted Brussels Sprouts are tender on the inside with a golden, crispy Parmesan coating on the outside. The savory coating enhances the natural sweetness of the sprouts, making this dish a perfect contrast of textures and flavors.


Ingredients

1 pound Brussels sprouts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

½ cup panko breadcrumbs

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Trim the Brussels sprouts, removing tough stems and any yellow or damaged leaves, then slice each in half lengthwise.
  3. In a large bowl, toss sprouts with olive oil until evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper over them. Toss again to distribute seasonings.
  5. In a separate small bowl, mix grated Parmesan with panko breadcrumbs.
  6. Add the Parmesan-panko mixture to the sprouts and toss gently, pressing so it adheres well.
  7. Arrange sprouts cut-side down in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  8. Roast for 20–25 minutes, until edges are golden and crisp. In the last 5 minutes, gently toss if needed for even browning.
  9. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.
  10. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • For extra heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes when mixing the seasonings.
  • Substitute whole wheat breadcrumbs for panko to lighten the dish.
  • If you prefer a deeper roasted flavor, you can roast them until deeply golden, but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat leftovers at 375°F for 8–10 minutes for crispy results.
