Ingredients:

• Brussels Sprouts: Low in calories, antioxidant rich, high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Brussels sprouts are an excellent addition to any diet. Contrary to popular believe, Brussels sprouts aren’t cute baby cabbages.
• Cooking Spray: I use either olive oil or avocado oil spray.
• Easy and Healthy Teriyaki Sauce: I prefer this homemade sauce because it doesn’t contain soy sauce, is gluten free, refined sugar free, and has the flavorful addition of sesame oil. Keep the sauce ingredients in a small bowl – you’ll need it for two different parts of the recipe. If you don’t have enough time to make your own easy and healthy teriyaki sauce and want to use a sauce sold in grocery stores, you can find my recommendation in the recipe tips below.

How to prepare these Crispy Roasted Teriyaki Brussels Sprouts in the Oven:

This recipe takes about 40 minutes to make.

1. Preheat your oven to 375º.
2. Cut the ends off of your Brussels sprouts, then cut them in half and place them in a large mixing bowl.
3. Lightly spray cooking oil over the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl and toss them around a bit to evenly coat all sides.
4. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Place your sprouts on the parchment paper in an evenly distributed single layer.
5. Roast for 25-30 minutes until soft and slightly browned.
6. Remove your baking sheet from the oven and drizzle half of your sauce over the Brussels sprouts (reserve the rest for serving).
7. Place sprouts under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until the tops turn dark brown. Watch carefully, they cook fast under the high heat!
8. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with a drizzling of the remaining sauce.

Recipe Tips:

• If you don’t have cooking spray on hand, you can toss your Brussels sprouts with a teaspoon or two of olive oil.
• If you are out of parchment paper, spray your pan with some olive oil to prevent the Brussels sprouts from sticking to the pan.
• Remove any wilted outer leaves before cooking. Don’t remove any fresh outer leaves before cooking. These will brown and become crispy which complements our savory teriyaki sauce.
• If you are running low on time, quarter your Brussels sprouts instead of halving them. This will allow the Brussels sprouts to cook faster.
• To reheat these sprouts, avoid microwaving them. Microwaving a crispy food like this won’t make it crispy again–it will make them hot and soggy. A better method in reheating the Brussels sprouts is in the oven or on the stovetop using a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Be sure to keep an eye on both of these methods – you don’t want to overcook or burn them.
• If you’d rather skip making the homemade teriyaki sauce, you can use a quality store bought sesame/teriyaki sauce. I use this one in a pinch: Simple Truth Organic™ Sesame Teriyaki Marinade
• This side dish makes the cut every year for Thanksgiving. It’s part of my healthy Thanksgiving menu.

3 Blue Plan Points | 3 Green Plan Points | 3 Purple Plan Points

The points for the new 2022/2023 points plan is 6.

21 Day Fix: 

For the entire recipe: 6 Green Containers (more or less depending on how large your sprouts are), 3 Teaspoons, 1/8 Purple Container. I give you the whole recipe amounts so it’s easier for you to recalculate your containers if you change something. 

Per Serving: (about 6 Brussels Sprouts) 1 Green Container, 1/2 Teaspoon, trace Purple Container (I do not count this).

If your sprouts aren’t the same size as the ones I used, your green containers might be a little off. I’d take a minute and measure out how many cups of sprouts you have, then divide that by 6 to get your serving size for the recipe. Remember, your green container is one cup.

2B Mindset: You can include these Teriyaki sprouts with any meal on 2B mindset. The sauce is an accessory.
