Oven Roasted Balsamic Brussels Sprouts

Ahhhh I'm in heaven and my tummy is rumbling with the smell in our kitchen!!  Made this with the Pork Chop Caramel Apple, and got the Brussels recipe from "Our Best Bites".  If you haven't noticed - I'm bound and determined to LOVE Brussels sprouts....then Ro can't complain about anything.....meat or not meat :)

And the verdict is in - best brussels sprouts to date :)  The pork chop was really good too - Ross does a really good job of cooking those on the stove....that is not my thing apparently!!

4 servings

Ingredients:

1 lb. fresh Brussels sprouts

1 1/2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

2 1/2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar, divided

3-4 cloves fresh garlic, minced

1/2 tsp. Kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling before serving

1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 425. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside.

Rinse sprouts in cool water and then chop off the tough ends. Pull any straggly leaves off the sprouts and then chop each sprout in half. Place in a medium bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together oil, 1 1/2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, 1/2 tsp. salt, and the freshly ground black pepper. Drizzle it over the chopped sprouts and then toss to combine. Spread the sprouts out evenly over the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes or until the sprouts are tender-crisp.

Remove from oven, transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with the reserved tablespoon of vinegar, and sprinkle with kosher salt to taste. Serve immediately
