Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Prepare a baking sheet: line a baking sheet with parchment paper OR foil sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. You can also spray the baking sheet directly. Set aside.

Step 2

Prepare the Brussels sprouts and garlic: Scrub the Brussels sprouts under warm water to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a towel. Use a sharp knife to cut both ends off of each Brussels sprout. If some of the leaves fall off, don't worry! You'll roast these, too. Then, cut them in half longways (hot-dog style). The goal is to get all of the Brussels sprouts around the same size so that they roast evenly. If you have some extra-large sprouts, you may need to quarter them. Use a sharp knife to cut both ends off of a head of garlic. Transfer the Brussels sprouts and head of garlic to the prepared baking sheet.

Evenly spread the Brussels sprouts out onto the baking sheet. Make sure they don't touch – if they overlap at all, they will not roast evenly. Make sure the head of garlic is open-face down.

Tips and Warnings

  • Storage: Store leftover roasted Brussels sprouts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. 
  • Reheating Brussels Sprouts: Reheat Brussels sprouts on the stovetop or in the oven (though the microwave works in a pinch). Stovetop: Add a little olive oil to a frying pan and heat over medium heat. Once oil is fragrant, add the Brussels sprouts and sauté until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Oven: Transfer veggies to a prepared sheet pan. Bake at 350ºF until warmed through, about 10 minutes.
  • Make Ahead Instructions: Store washed, dried, and trimmed Brussels sprouts in an airtight container or bag for up to 2 days before roasting. When ready to roast, follow the recipe as written.
