Ingredients

Scale

Brussels Sprouts

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon chipotle powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Roast Brussels sprouts: In a large bowl, toss the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts thoroughly with extra virgin olive oil to ensure even coating. Spread them out cut side down on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then carefully flip each sprout and continue roasting for an additional 10-15 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy around the edges.
  3. Prepare the sauce: While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, chili powder, paprika, chipotle powder, kosher salt, red pepper flakes, honey, and maple syrup in a small bowl until well combined to create a spicy-sweet glaze.
  4. Toss sprouts in sauce: Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, immediately transfer them to a large bowl and toss while still hot with the prepared sauce to coat evenly and infuse every bite with flavor.
  5. Serve: Serve the Brussels sprouts warm as a flavorful side dish or appetizer.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, ensure Brussels sprouts are spread in a single layer without overcrowding the pan.
  • Adjust the amount of chili powder and chipotle powder to control the spice level.
  • Use fresh Brussels sprouts and trim the ends for best results.
  • This recipe can be doubled using a larger baking sheet or roasting in batches to maintain crispiness.
  • The sauce can be prepared ahead and reheated gently if needed.
