- 2 tbsp olive oil (239 calories)
- 1 tsp smoked paprika (6 calories)
- ½ tsp garlic powder (5 calories)
- ¼ tsp salt (0 calories)
- ¼ tsp black pepper (3 calories)
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar (28 calories)
- 1 tbsp honey (64 calories)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse and halve the Brussels sprouts, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until they are blackened and crispy on the edges.
- While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, combine balsamic vinegar and honey in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens into a glaze (about 5 minutes).
- Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, healthy side dish!
