This easy recipe for Brussels sprouts is an Asian-inspired twist on the classic vegetable. It has sweet, spicy, savory, & salty flavors you won't want to miss. The homemade teriyaki sauce is gluten-free plus has brown sugar that caramelizes the Brussels sprouts as they roast in the oven. The crispy edges & delicious sauce makes this quick & simple recipe irresistible.
Clean and cut off the stem of each Brussels sprout. Then cut each one in half from the bottom to the top.
In a large mixing bowl add the cut Brussels sprouts.
Drizzle on the oil and teriyaki sauce. Toss to coat.
Sprinkle on the garlic powder & ½ of the sesame seeds. Add the brown sugar and Thai chili garlic sauce.
Spread out the seasoned Brussels sprouts in an even single layer on your baking sheet.
Bake for 25-35 minutes in the preheated oven. At about the 15-minute mark, stir so that other sides of the sprouts can brown. They should be fork-tender in the middle and crispy brown on the edges.
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Spoon the Brussels sprouts onto a serving platter. Sprinkle on the remaining sesame seeds. Serve & enjoy.
Notes
STORING & REHEATING TIPS:
Brussels sprouts store really well in the refrigerator. Store leftovers for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. ( I don't recommend freezing since they get mushy)
To reheat, microwave or warm them up in a 350° oven.
TOP TIPS:
Make sure the sprouts are uniform in size and cut in half or quarters. This way they cook evenly and quickly so they are done without burning the sugars in the sauce.
Substitute the teriyaki sauce for Tamari for a gluten-free & soy-free version.
