For the Brussels Sprouts:
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts stems removed
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
For the Balsamic Sauce:
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp honey
- 4 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic grated
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts
Slice the Brussels sprouts in half and place them on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with avocado oil, then season with sea salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly, then arrange the sprouts cut side down on the baking sheet.
Make the Balsamic Sauce
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine olive oil, honey, balsamic vinegar, and grated garlic. Use a whisk to mix everything together.
Simmer the mixture over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Be careful, as it may rise quickly when stirred.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the sauce cool slightly; it will thicken as it cools.
Storing Leftovers: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Note that the Brussels sprouts will lose some of their crispiness after storing.
Serving Suggestions: These sprouts pair well with roasted chicken, pork chops, or as a side to a holiday meal.
