30-Minute Roasted Brussels Sprouts In The Oven

Author: Jessica Haggard
I didn’t know that the perfect side existed until these roasted Brussels sprouts! They come out crispy on the edges, buttery-soft inside, and packed with a rich, savory flavor. Crunchy bacon and a drizzle of balsamic glaze make this 30-minute dish even more appetizing!

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 slices bacon chopped
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425 °F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  • Toss the Brussels sprouts in a large bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the chopped bacon evenly over the top.
  • Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the Brussels sprouts are crispy on the edges and the bacon is fully cooked.
  • Drizzle with balsamic vinegar before serving warm.

Notes

  • Dry the sprouts before seasoning for the crispiest texture. 
  • Choose thick-cut bacon as thin bacon cooks too fast and can burn before the sprouts are ready.
  • The sprouts will steam instead of roast if overcrowded, so give each sprout breathing room so the heat can circulate.
  • Flip only once during roasting to avoid interrupting browning and drying them out.
Serve: Serve with mains like chicken, salmon, or roast; grain bowls or pasta. Make during the week or for your holiday table.
Store: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To reheat, warm in a 375 F oven for 8 to 10 minutes or in an air fryer for 3 to 5 minutes. Avoid reheating in the microwave.
