Instructions

1.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.
In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
3.
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding.
4.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and slightly browned, flipping halfway through.
5.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
6.
Reduce the heat to low and let simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened slightly and coats the back of a spoon. Be careful not to burn it.
7.
Once the Brussels sprouts are done, transfer them to a serving bowl. Add the Jersey butter to the hot Brussels sprouts and toss until melted and evenly distributed.
8.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the Brussels sprouts. Toss gently to coat.
9.
Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For extra crispy Brussels sprouts, don't overcrowd the pan. If necessary, use two baking sheets.

The balsamic glaze will thicken as it cools, so don't over-reduce it on the stovetop.

Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preference. You can also omit them entirely.

You can add toasted nuts like pecans or walnuts for added texture and flavor.
