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:
- Prep your Brussels sprouts! Trim a little off the ends and halve them.
- 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.
- 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!
- 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.
- Roast for 30 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and beautifully browned on the edges.
- 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.
