Ingredients:

1 lb Brussels sprouts

3 tbsp unsalted butter

1 tsp dried parsley

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes adjust to your spice preference

2-3 garlic cloves minced or grated

1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

Here is how to make them:

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper

Trim the stem end of each Brussels sprout and remove any damaged outer leaves. Cut each sprout in half.

In a small bowl, melt the butter. Stir in the dried parsley, dried thyme, red pepper flakes, minced garlic, salt and pepper.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts and the garlic herb butter mixture. Toss the sprouts until they are well-coated with the seasoned butter.

Sprinkle a little 1-2 tbsp of the parmesan cheese over the Brussels sprouts and toss them again.

Generously sprinkle a layer of grated Parmesan cheese on the line baking sheet. Spread the Brussels sprouts evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are cut-side down to maximize the crispiness.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender on the inside and have developed a golden, crispy crust on the outside. You can check for doneness by inserting a fork into one of the sprouts; it should go in easily.

Transfer the Parmesan Crusted Brussels Sprouts to a serving platter and serve hot.
