Ingredients:
– 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 1 clove garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon grated ginger
– Sesame seeds, for garnish
– Chopped green onions, for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl, toss the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
3. Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not crowded to ensure even roasting. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven.
4. Roast the Brussels sprouts for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges. Be sure to toss halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
5. While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the sweet chili sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Cook the sauce, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until it slightly thickens.
6. Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted to perfection, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sweet chili sauce over the roasted sprouts and toss gently to coat them evenly.
7. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the glazed Brussels sprouts for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.
8. Serve the Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Sweet Chili Sauce warm as a side dish or a main vegetarian option. Enjoy the delightful combination of crunchy sprouts and sticky-sweet sauce with every bite!
