1-Getting crispy Brussels sprouts starts with the right setup: Preheat the oven to 450°F and place an empty baking sheet inside to heat up this simple step helps kickstart the crisping process. Wash the Brussels sprouts, remove any yellow or wilted leaves, and slice them in half lengthwise to maximize surface area for that golden crunch. Once prepped, you’re ready to mix in the flavors that make this roasted Brussels sprouts crispy and tender recipe a hit.

2-In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with half of the olive oil, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tbsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tbsp honey. Toss everything together until the sprouts are evenly coated, setting the stage for that delicious caramelization. Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and drizzle the remaining olive oil across it for extra crispness.

3-Arrange the Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet with the flat side down to promote even roasting. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping them occasionally halfway through until they turn dark golden brown and crispy. Check midway and add more olive oil if needed to keep them from drying out. Once done, transfer to a bowl and season with a bit more salt if you like, then serve warm for the best texture.
