Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, toss Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer, cut-side down, on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Roast for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with sliced almonds. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Return to oven and continue roasting until Brussels sprouts are tender, crisp, and browned around the edges, and almonds are toasted, 15-20 minutes more. (20 minutes)

05

Step

Transfer to a serving bowl. Add Manchego cheese, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Toss gently to combine, ensuring sprouts are well coated. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy the dance of flavors!

For enhanced browning, ensure Brussels sprouts are dry before tossing with oil.
Toast almonds separately in a dry pan for even more intense flavor, if desired.
Substitute Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese if Manchego is unavailable.
A drizzle of balsamic glaze after roasting adds a touch of sweetness and complexity.
