Ingredients

Scale
  • lb Brussels sprouts
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 teaspoons gluten-free tamari or soy sauce
  • Chopped peanuts for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Spray with nonstick spray.
  2. Trim the ends off Brussels sprouts, slice in half, and remove any loose outer leaves.
  3. Add sprouts to the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and arrange cut side down in a single layer.
  4. Roast for 15–17 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. In a small bowl, mix sweet chili sauce and tamari (or soy sauce).
  6. Brush the sauce mixture over the roasted sprouts and return to the oven for 5–7 minutes, until bubbly and caramelized.
  7. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts if using and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh Brussels sprouts for best texture and crispiness.
  • Make the dish vegan by using plant-based chili sauce and skipping peanuts if allergic.
  • Use low-sodium tamari to reduce salt content.
  • To reheat, use oven or air fryer for best results—avoid the microwave.
  • Double the glaze for a stickier finish or serve extra on the side for dipping.
