Preparation
Step 1

Step 2
Place the Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil, balsamic, and honey. Sprinkle with the salt and several grinds of pepper and toss to coat. Arrange the Brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer, leaving a little space around each one.

Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until tender and golden brown around the edges. The exact timing will depend on the size of your sprouts. Season to taste.

Chef's notes
This balsamic Brussels sprouts recipe is delicious as written, but you can toss the crispy sprouts with grated garlic after roasting, top them with grated Parmesan cheese, sprinkle them with fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme instead of parsley, or replace the pecans with toasted walnuts.
