Ingredients
  

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

Sesame seeds and fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is key for achieving that crispy texture.

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until they are evenly coated.

      Roast the Brussels Sprouts: Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are cut-side down for maximum crispiness. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

        Make the Honey Garlic Sauce: While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir well and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

          Glaze the Brussels Sprouts: Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, remove them from the oven and immediately drizzle the honey garlic sauce over them. Toss to coat evenly.

            Final Roast for Extra Crisp: Return the glazed Brussels sprouts to the oven and roast for an additional 5-7 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize and create an extra crispy finish.

              Serve: Remove from the oven, and garnish with sesame seeds and fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot as a delightful side dish or a flavorful appetizer!
