Description

A simple recipe for Brussels sprouts tossed in a sweet and sour glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
  2. Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  4. While the sprouts roast, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a small saucepan.
  5. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
  6. Bring the sauce mixture in the saucepan to a simmer over medium heat.
  7. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
  8. Remove the roasted Brussels sprouts from the oven and place them in a large bowl.
  9. Pour the thickened sweet and sour sauce over the sprouts and toss to coat evenly.
  10. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the finished sprouts.
  • If you prefer a crispier sprout, you can pan-fry them instead of roasting.
