Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
  • 3 tablespoons extra -virgin olive oil
  • 0.75 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).
  2. Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any discolored outer leaves. Halve each sprout lengthwise through the stem.
  3. Transfer the prepared sprouts to a large rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Apply olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss thoroughly to ensure an even lipid and seasoning distribution.
  5. Arrange the sprouts in a single layer, ensuring the flat cut sides are in direct contact with the baking sheet for maximum caramelization.
  6. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes. At the 15-minute mark, check for browning; if necessary, toss to ensure even heat exposure.
  7. Remove from oven when the exterior is charred and the core is tender when pierced with a paring knife.
