Tips for the roasted parmesan Brussels sprouts
This Brussels sprouts recipe is super easy and versatile. Here are a few tips to make it even better!
- Make sure to cut the Brussels sprouts into even pieces to achieve a similar texture.
- For a nice golden sear, turn the Brussels sprouts cut-side down on the sheet pan.
- Make sure your oven is at the right temperature for at least 5 to 10 minutes before putting the sheet pan in. This will help to lightly sear the outside of the Brussels sprouts and get the insides soft.
- Feel free to add more parmesan to the Brussels sprouts.
- To make this side dish more substantial, add chopped bacon to the Brussels sprouts. Other nice add-ins might be sweet potato cubes, quartered onions, sliced shallot, whole garlic cloves…
How to prepare Brussels sprouts for roasting?

Before trimming, wash your Brussels sprouts to remove any dirt. Stem and halve the Brussels sprouts using a sharp knife.

Transfer the sheet pan to a 400ºF (200ºC) oven and bake for 2o to 30 minutes, until the veggies are tender and golden brown around the edges. Enjoy!

I completed this recipe in about 20 mins, start to finish. I pressure cooked my BS in my German stove top pressure cooker, heats up my 1.5 inch's of water in the bottom in about 3 mins. super fast (Fissler brand). Cooked for 8 mins., but next time I will only pressure cook for 4-5 mins. Do a quick release of the steam, then poured the mixed up ingredients, altering amounts slightly to my preference, added more Pharm. and broiled long enough to crisp up Pharm. cheese 3-4 mins. Oh, I also grated my Pharm. cheese in my Vitamix. Cut into chunks, takes a nano second and no danger of grading off my skin. The reason I said 20 mins is I included the initial processing of the BS. I also made a 2lb bag which I consumed about 3/4 of the finished product. Yummy for sure!

I always thought you should roast brussels sprouts cut side down to get that crispy layer.

We had these as a side dish to balsamic-grilled chicken thighs. So delicious! Next time I'll sprinkle a little more Parmesan on top because it's so good when it gets crispy! Thank you for the recipe.

1st off...I want to say that I never leave reviews (but I always read them so shame on me!) I read the recipe and chose to cook these cut side down, AND if I noticed that the cut side was low on cheese, I placed some down first, and then put the cut side of the sprout on top of it. My 11 year old flipped out about how good these were and even got a second helping when I wasn't looking! Highly recommend this one!

Great flavors all the Parmesan just burned to the bottom of the pan, there’s none on the Brussels and they look nothing like this recipe I’m confused.

These were fantastic. Used freshly grated parmigiana and maybe a bit less oil, cooked them a bit more than called for because the rest of the meal too longer than expected but so delicious. Two of us ate the whole recipe. Will definitely make these again!!

Absolutely terrific. Easy, quick and delicious. Cooked a few minutes longer and outside had a little crunch and inside was soft and yummy. Garnished with fresh parsley and grated parm cheese, served with frenched rack of lamb (another super easy gourmet dish) cooked in the same oven at same time and it was fantastic. Entire family loved it.

The Brussels were to dry and chewy. But the cheese was delicious. It will need some tweaking before I’d make again.

I made this last night as it was designed, written. First, I don't really like Brussel sprouts, but I was looking for a great recipe. This was great, Brussel sprouts are very healthy. Still had a little of that taste. I made flounder for dinner, with lemons on top. I looked at the cooked lemons and decided to try some on the sprouts. That was my answer to great Brussel sprouts. I don't know if that can be added prior. Next time I'll try it on half the batch. Maybe I'm getting older and liking more types of food!
