The Brussels Sprouts turned out great. You roast them until they are almost black. They come out sweet and crisp. They are good cold from the fridge.


Roasted Brussels Sprouts
*
* Prep
15 m
* Cook
45 m
* Ready In
1 h

Ingredients
* 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and yellow leaves removed
* 3 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 teaspoon kosher salt
* 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
* Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
* Place trimmed Brussels sprouts, olive oil, kosher salt, and pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal tightly, and shake to coat. Pour onto a baking sheet, and place on center oven rack.
* Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, shaking pan every 5 to 7 minutes for even browning. Reduce heat when necessary to prevent burning. Brussels sprouts should be darkest brown, almost black, when done. Adjust seasoning with kosher salt, if necessary.
