Parmesan-Crusted Brussel Sprouts

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup grass-fed butter ghee, or unrefined coconut oil
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves pressed or minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 lb brussels sprouts
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Optional:

  • lemon wedges and freshly chopped parsley for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees f. and position a rack in the center of your oven.
  • Place your butter into an 8x8 baking dish, then into your preheated oven for just a minute or so until it's melted.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the Brussels sprouts, trim them, and cut them in half.
  • Once the butter has melted in the bottom of your baking dish, carefully remove the dish from the oven.
  • In the same baking dish, add the pressed garlic, Italian seasoning, and parmesan cheese, stirring everything with a fork until well combined.
  • Use a silicone spatula to help you evenly spread this mixture over the entire bottom of the baking dish. This will form the crust!
  • Arrange your sprout halves, cut-side down onto the baking dish as shown, and gently press them to adhere to the parmesan mixture.
  • Season with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  • Roast in your preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden with a crisp to the bottom.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
