1-First Step: Preheat the Oven Turn on your oven and set it to 400ºF (200ºC), then place the rack in the middle for even heat distribution. This step ensures your roasted vegetables get that perfect golden sear. Preheating takes about 5 to 10 minutes, giving you time to prep the sprouts.

2-Second Step: Prepare the Brussels Sprouts Trim the bottom of the Brussels sprouts and slice each one in half from top to bottom. This helps them cook evenly and develop a crispy edge in your Garlic Parmesan roasted Brussels sprouts recipe. Rinse them first and pat dry to remove excess moisture.

3-Third Step: Coat the Sprouts Place the prepared Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of olive oil or melted butter, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Toss everything gently to coat evenly, which will infuse the flavors into the roasted vegetables.

4-Fourth Step: Arrange on the Baking Sheet Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Spread the coated Brussels sprouts evenly on the sheet with the cut side down for a golden sear. This arrangement is key for that crispy finish in your easy roasted Brussels sprouts with garlic and Parmesan.

5-Fifth Step: Roasting Time Bake the sprouts in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, checking halfway to stir if needed for uniform cooking. Adjust the time based on your oven; you want them golden brown and tender. For dietary tweaks, use olive oil for a lighter option if you’re watching calories.

6-Final Step: Serve and Enjoy Once done, transfer the sprouts to a serving bowl and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley if you like.
