Maple Sriracha Brussels Sprouts (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 lb brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
02 -
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil or other neutral oil
03 -
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
04 -
2 tablespoons maple syrup
05 -
1 tablespoon Sriracha
06 -
Toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
02 -
Trim the stems off of brussels sprouts, then cut each brussels sprout in half lengthwise.
03 -
Scatter brussels sprouts on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with grapeseed oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with fine sea salt. Bake until tender and golden brown around the edges, 20 to 30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through.
04 -
Whisk together maple syrup and Sriracha. Pour over baking sheet of brussels sprouts. Toss to coat. Bake until brussels sprouts and glaze are hot, about 5 minutes.
05 -
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, if using. Season with more salt if needed. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
Ensure the brussels sprouts are patted dry after washing to achieve caramelization. Excess moisture will cause steaming.
02 -
Adjust the Sriracha quantity based on spice sensitivity. Alternative substitutes include Sambal Oelek or other hot sauces.
