Oven-Charred Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Honey Glaze

 

Since I baked these with mushrooms, which put off a lot of liquid, which creates steam in the oven, these didn't turn out as charred as they look when they are just baked by themselves. But I won't be able to update the photo until I make them again.

Don't make them with mushrooms, lol. Sweet mushrooms are icky.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound brussels sprouts. 
• 2 Tbsp. EVOO. 
• 1 tsp salt. 
• 1 tsp pepper. 
• 2 Tbsp. honey. 
• 2 Tbsp. EVOO. 

Directions:

1. Cut the stem off each brussels sprout, then peel off any wilted leaves. 
2. Cut them in half, length-wise.
3. Transfer to a 2.5 quart glass bowl, and add salt, pepper and EVOO.
4. Toss to coat with hands. 
5. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with nonstick foil. 
6. Bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit (preheated) for 20 minutes. 
7. Remove from oven. 
8. In a separate bowl, whisk honey and balsamic vinegar together, and then pour it over the brussels sprouts.
9. Toss to coat with tongs. 
10. Serve immediately.
