1. Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts for this recipe?

While fresh Brussels sprouts are ideal for achieving that crispy texture, you can use frozen Brussels sprouts if necessary. Be sure to thaw and pat them dry thoroughly before roasting to remove excess moisture. Note that frozen Brussels sprouts may not become as crispy as fresh ones, but they’ll still be delicious!

2. How can I make Crispy Parmesan Crusted Roasted Brussels Sprouts spicier?

If you like a little heat, you can easily spice up this dish! Add a pinch of red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, or even some smoked paprika to the seasoning mix before roasting. These will add a bold kick that balances out the rich Parmesan flavor.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Rinse the Brussels sprouts under cold water, trim the stem ends, and cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt. Toss well to coat.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the seasoned Brussels sprouts and toss again to distribute the cheese evenly.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer, cut side down.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm.

Notes

Ensure the Brussels sprouts are dry before seasoning to achieve maximum crispiness.
Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet; space the Brussels sprouts out evenly for even roasting.
If you want extra crunch, consider broiling for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
Feel free to add herbs like thyme or rosemary for added flavor.
