Ingredients:

  1. Brussels Sprouts: Begin with 1 pound of medium-sized Brussels sprouts. Look for fresh, firm sprouts with vibrant green leaves for the best flavor and texture.
  2. Olive Oil Spray: A light coating of olive oil spray ensures that the Brussels sprouts roast evenly and develop a crispy exterior.
  3. Minced Ginger: Add 1 tablespoon of minced ginger to infuse the dish with aromatic warmth and complexity.
  4. Low Sodium Soy Sauce: Incorporate 1 tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce for a rich umami flavor without excessive saltiness.
  5. Table Salt and Black Pepper: Enhance the taste with a quarter teaspoon each of table salt and freshly ground black pepper, balancing the flavors to perfection.
  6. Roasted Onion: Replace bacon with thinly sliced roasted onions, adding a caramelized sweetness and savory crunch to the dish.

Instructions:

  1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a roasting pan by lining it with aluminum foil or coating it with cooking spray. This ensures easy cleanup and prevents sticking.
  2. Trim and Halve Brussels Sprouts: Start by removing any yellow outer leaves from the Brussels sprouts and trimming the ends. Slice each sprout in half lengthwise. For larger sprouts, quartering may be necessary to ensure even cooking.
  3. Coat with Soy-Ginger Glaze: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with minced ginger, low sodium soy sauce, table salt, and black pepper. Toss the ingredients together until the sprouts are evenly coated with the flavorful glaze.
  4. Roasting: Spread the coated Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared roasting pan. Place them in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 15 minutes.
  5. Prepare Roasted Onions: While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, thinly slice the onion and spread it evenly on a separate baking sheet. Roast the onions in the oven until they turn golden brown and crispy, approximately 10-15 minutes.
  6. Incorporate Roasted Onions: Once the Brussels sprouts have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven. Add the crispy roasted onions to the sprouts and gently toss to combine.
  7. Continue Roasting: Return the pan to the oven and continue roasting the Brussels sprouts and onions until the sprouts are tender when pierced with a knife. This additional roasting time allows the flavors to meld and intensify.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once fully roasted, transfer the Brussels sprouts and roasted onions to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs or additional black pepper if desired. Serve immediately and savor the irresistible combination of flavors and textures.

Useful Information:

  • Brussels Sprouts Selection: When choosing Brussels sprouts, opt for ones that are firm, compact, and bright green in color. Avoid sprouts with yellowing leaves or blemishes, as they may indicate age or spoilage.
  • Ginger Preparation: To easily peel and mince ginger, use the edge of a spoon to scrape off the skin. Then, finely chop or grate the ginger for optimal flavor dispersion.
  • Soy Sauce Variation: For a gluten-free option, select a certified gluten-free soy sauce or tamari to ensure the dish remains suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.
  • Storage and Reheating: Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, simply place the Brussels sprouts in a preheated oven or toaster oven until warmed through.
