Shopping List
- 1 1/2 pounds brussel sprouts
- 33333333/100000000 cup dried cranberries
- 33333333/100000000 cup slivered almonds
- 2 tablespoons high-heat cooking oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 420°F. Rinse and dry the brussel sprouts. Cut the small brussel sprouts in half vertically, and any large brussel sprouts into quarters. There is no need to remove the outer leaves unless they are blemished.
- Step 2: Toss the brussel sprouts in the oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single-layer on a baking sheet. Make sure not to overcrowd the sheet, so that we can get those nice crispy edges. Roasted the brussel sprouts for 20 minutes, flipping them over halfway through the cooking time.
- Step 3: Meanwhile, heat a dry frying pan over medium heat. Add the slivered almonds and toast them in the pan for about 5 minutes, or until they are fragrant and golden brown. Shake the pan often to avoid burning. Once toasted, remove the almonds from the pan.
- Step 4: In the same pan over medium heat, add the balsamic vinegar and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it has cooked down slightly. Transfer the vinegar glaze to a dish.
- Step 5: Remove the roasted brussel sprouts from the oven and toss it in a mixing bowl with the balsamic glaze, toasted almonds, and dried cranberries. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Grab a plate and enjoy. These sprouts are delicious alongside holiday favorites such as Sweet Potato Lentil Loaf and Mashed Cauliflower.
