Ingredients

• 1 lb Brussels sprouts
• 3 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 large Garlic cloves
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp Lemon juice
• 0.5 tsp Paprika
• 0.25 tsp Chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any wilted outer leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 4

Spread the Brussels sprouts cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure maximum crispiness.

Step 5

Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are golden brown and crispy on the edges, flipping them halfway through cooking.

Step 6

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the garlic aioli. Mince the garlic finely or use a garlic press to create a paste.

Step 7

In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, and chili flakes (if using) until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve the roasted Brussels sprouts immediately with the garlic aioli on the side for dipping.
