Halved Brussels sprouts roast until caramelized at the edges, then get tossed with a glossy glaze made from dried cranberries, balsamic vinegar, and a touch of honey. The sweet-tart glaze balances the sprouts' earthy bitterness, making this a fitting side for holiday tables or weeknight dinners alike.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup pecans, chopped and toasted
- 2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a 9x13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper on the baking sheet, arranging them cut-side down.
-
Roast until the sprouts are deeply browned and crisp at the edges, tossing once halfway through, about 25 to 30 minutes.
-
While the sprouts roast, combine the dried cranberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, and water in a small saucepan over medium heat.
-
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries soften and the liquid reduces to a syrupy glaze, about 8 minutes.
-
Remove the glaze from heat and let it cool slightly; it will continue to thicken as it sits.
-
Transfer the roasted sprouts to a serving bowl and drizzle with the cranberry balsamic glaze, tossing gently to coat.
-
Scatter the toasted pecans and crumbled feta over the top and serve warm.
