Ingredients

  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts ends trimmed and brown leaves removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with olive oil spray.
  • Cut Brussels sprouts in half, cross-wise; place on baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, tossing well till evenly coated.
  • Roast for about 25 minutes, tossing occasionally with a spatula to ensure even browning. Do not allow to burn. Brussels sprouts are done when they are nicely caramelized and outer leaves are a bit crispy.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl; toss with thyme leaves.
