Ingredients

• 1 lb Brussels sprouts
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Panko bread crumbs
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 tsp Lemon zest
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Trim the stem ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves.

Step 3

Toss the Brussels sprouts in a mixing bowl with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are tender and golden brown on the edges.

Step 5

While the sprouts are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter in a small skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Step 7

Stir in the panko bread crumbs and cook, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the lemon zest. Set the bread crumb mixture aside.

Step 9

Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving dish.

Step 10

Sprinkle the toasted bread crumbs over the Brussels sprouts and toss gently to combine.

Step 11

Top with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy!
