Ingredients

• 1 pound Brussels sprouts
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash and dry the Brussels sprouts. Trim the ends and remove any yellow or damaged leaves.

Step 3

Cut the Brussels sprouts in half, or quarters if they are large, to ensure even cooking.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

Step 5

Add the Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss them well until they are thoroughly coated in the oil and spice mixture.

Step 6

Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Step 7

Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and crispy on the outside. Stir them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving bowl.

Step 9

Sprinkle the lemon zest and chopped parsley over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss gently to combine.

Step 10

Serve immediately while they are warm and crispy, adjusting the seasoning to taste with more black pepper if desired.
