Preheat it to 350°F (175°C). Spread the sprouts on a baking sheet and heat for about 10 minutes. This way, they stay crispy. If you’re short on time, you can use the microwave. But be careful! Microwaving can make them soggy. If you choose this method, heat them in short bursts. Check every 30 seconds until warm. Enjoy the crunch again! For crispy Brussels sprouts, roast them for 30 to 35 minutes. Start with 20 minutes at 400°F (200°C) to let them soften. Then, add Parmesan and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes. This gives you that nice golden brown color and crunch. Yes, you can use frozen Brussels sprouts! But you need to change your cooking time. First, thaw them and drain any excess water. Then, roast them for about 5 to 10 minutes longer than fresh ones. This helps them cook through and get crispy. Garlic Parmesan Roasted Brussels sprouts go great with many dishes.

Ingredients
  

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

4 cloves garlic, finely minced

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting.

    In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts with the minced garlic, olive oil, garlic powder, red pepper flakes (if using), sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands or a spatula to toss the mixture, ensuring the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with all the seasonings.

      Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it, then spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer on the sheet, making sure the cut sides are facing down for an optimal roast.

        Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the Brussels sprouts for 20 minutes until they start to become tender and slightly charred.

          After 20 minutes, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese generously over the Brussels sprouts to create a cheesy crust.

            Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are beautifully golden brown and crispy around the edges.

              Once the Brussels sprouts are perfectly roasted, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Just before serving, top with chopped fresh parsley for a vibrant touch, if desired.
