Parmesan-Crusted Brussels Sprouts

Parmesan-crusted Brussels sprouts turn a simple veggie into a seriously delicious side. Sprouts are tossed with olive oil and warm spices, then roasted on a blanket of Parmesan that melts and bakes into a golden, lacy crust. It’s tender on the inside, ultra crispy on the outside, and packed with savory, cheesy flavor in every bite — easy enough for weeknights, impressive enough for guests.

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half lengthwise. Toss together the Brussels sprouts, oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and paprika in a large bowl until evenly coated. Set aside.
  3. Line a baking sheet (around 11½ x 8 inches) with parchment paper. Sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese evenly over the parchment, using more or less cheese to your preference. (The more cheese you add, the crispier the dish will be, but be sure to not leave too many empty spots without cheese!) Gently arrange the Brussels sprouts halves, cut side down, in neat rows in the Parmesan cheese.
  4. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese has turned a deep golden color. Keep an eye on the cheese so it doesn’t turn too dark!
  5. Remove from the oven, and let stand until slightly cooled, 5–8 minutes. If desired, top it with grated Parmesan cheese, and serve with a fun dip of choice…or devour as is!
  6. Enjoy!
