Ingredients
Scale
For the Brussels Sprouts:
- 1 ½ lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
For the Dijon Aioli:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Prepare Brussels Sprouts: In a large bowl, toss the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated. This seasoning mixture enhances their natural flavors.
- Roast the Brussels Sprouts: Spread the sprouts cut side down in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to maximize crispiness. Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and crisp edges.
- Make the Dijon Aioli: While the Brussels sprouts roast, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, creating a flavorful dipping sauce.
- Serve: Once the Brussels sprouts are golden brown and crispy, serve them hot alongside the Dijon aioli. You can either dip the sprouts or drizzle the aioli over the top for extra flavor.
Notes
- To achieve extra crispiness, ensure you don’t overcrowd the baking sheet, allowing the sprouts to roast evenly.
- For a quicker alternative, use an air fryer: cook the Brussels sprouts at 400°F for 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for even cooking.
