Low carb parmesan crusted brussels sprouts

Low carb parmesan crusted brussels sprouts are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be whipped up quickly and easily. This recipe combines the nutty flavor of roasted brussels sprouts with the savory crust of parmesan cheese, making it a perfect accompaniment to your main course or a stand-alone snack.

Ingredients:

1/2 lb brussels sprouts
230g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
1 tsp lemon juice
5g
1 tsp dill
0.18g
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
24g
1 dash salt
0.40g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for baking the Brussels sprouts.
2. Prepare Brussels Sprouts: Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly under cold water. Trim the stem ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise.
3. Season Brussels Sprouts:
- Place the halved Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl.
- Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice over them.
- Sprinkle in the dill and a dash of salt.
- Toss the Brussels sprouts well to ensure they're evenly coated with the olive oil, lemon juice, dill, and salt.
4. Add Parmesan Cheese:
- Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the Brussels sprouts.
- Toss again until the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated with the cheese.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the Brussels sprouts out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they are not too crowded to ensure even roasting.
6. Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes. Stir the Brussels sprouts halfway through the cooking time to ensure they roast evenly. They should be golden brown and crispy with a tender interior.
7. Serve: Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Transfer them to a serving dish and enjoy your delicious low-carb, Parmesan-crusted Brussels sprouts!

Tips:

- Choose fresh, small to medium-sized brussels sprouts for the best flavor and texture.

- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) before you start preparing the ingredients to save time.

- Cut the brussels sprouts in half or quarters to ensure even cooking and a crispier texture.

- Mix the olive oil, lemon juice, and spices in a large bowl before tossing in the brussels sprouts to ensure even coating.

- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil to make cleanup easier.

- For an extra crispy crust, sprinkle an additional layer of grated parmesan cheese on top of the brussels sprouts before baking.

- Keep an eye on the brussels sprouts while baking to prevent overcooking, which can cause them to become too soft.

By following this simple recipe, you can enjoy a nutritious and tasty dish without the extra carbs. The combination of brussels sprouts and parmesan offers a satisfying crunch and rich flavor that will make this dish a new favorite in your home.
