The Best Brussels Sprouts Recipe: Simple & Flavorful (Boiled & Roasted!)

The Best Brussels Sprouts Recipe: Simple & Flavorful (Boiled & Roasted!)

Brussels sprouts. They can be a source of groans at the dinner table, or a delightful surprise. The key? Getting them cooked to crispy-tender perfection, with enough flavor to make everyone happy. Today, we’re achieving both with a unique recipe that uses a secret weapon: Little’s Seasonings!

Little’s The Mix and Little’s The Gravel Mix are our own special blends, designed to elevate your favorite dishes. Little’s The Mix is a classic all-purpose blend, bringing together the essential trifecta of flavor: salt, pepper, and garlic. Little’s The Gravel Mix takes things up a notch with a coarse-ground texture, adding a burst of flavor with each bite.

But enough about the stars of the show, let’s get cooking! This recipe is incredibly easy, perfect for busy weeknights or a delicious side dish to impress your guests.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 2 tbsp Little’s The Mix seasoning
  • 1 tbsp Little’s The Gravel Mix seasoning

Instructions:

  1. Prep your Brussels sprouts! Trim a little off the ends and halve them.
  2. Now comes the secret weapon: in a pot of boiling water, add 2 tbsp on Little’s The Mix and cook the Brussels sprouts for 6 minutes. This par-cooks them, ensuring even cooking when roasted later. The seasoning will add our first layer of flavor.
  3. Drain the Brussels sprouts and toss them with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with Little’s The Gravel Mix. The coarse texture adds a delightful textural contrast and our second layer of flavor!
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, drizzle on some olive oil, and arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer, flat side down.
  5. Roast for 30 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and beautifully browned on the edges.
  6. Once cooked, remove from the oven and garnish with a sprinkle of Little’s The Mix for the third layer of flavor!

Tips:

  • Want extra crispy Brussels sprouts? After boiling, halve the cooking time in the oven (around 15 minutes) and crank the heat to 425°F (220°C) for the last few minutes.
