Ingredients
  

1.5 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: In a large bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss well to ensure the sprouts are evenly coated.

      Roast the Brussels Sprouts: Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for maximum crispiness. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

        Add Cheese: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the Brussels sprouts. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

          Finish and Serve: Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the roasted Brussels sprouts for a tangy kick. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
