These parmesan crusted Brussels sprouts are the perfect side dish. Tender, crispy, and well-seasoned, they're perfect as a pairing for a steak, and are great for the holidays! We paired them with a hot honey mustard dipping sauce for even more flavor.

Ingredients

  • 12-15 brussels sprouts
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 1+ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce of choice
  • 1 tablespoon honey

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400˚F. Toss Brussels sprouts in olive oil and transfer to a baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Cover with aluminum foil and roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through cook time, until fork tender. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, mix together the salt, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, mustard powder and cayenne.

  4. 4

    Trim the ends and then cut the Brussels sprouts in half. Optional: flatten the Brussels sprouts by placing another sheet pan on top and pressing down. Season the cut side liberally with seasoning mix.

  5. 5

    Place a pinch of parmesan down on a sheet pan for each Brussels sprout half, then place them flat side down on the parmesan and press down gently. Sprinkle seasoning on top of each sprout.

    Return to the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the cheese is crispy. Meanwhile, whisk together all ingredients for the hot honey mustard.
