Brussels sprouts have had a terrible reputation for too long! These nutrient packed greens can be so delicious – if you prepare them the right way. Enter – Sesame Soy Glazed Brussels Sprouts.

We’ve come a long way from boiling brussels sprouts. Yuck. There are so many ways to make spouts so delicious with ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry.

Before I met my husband, I never ate brussels sprouts. I guess we never ate them growing up, but either way, I had doubts.

But when he started adding things like panchetta and pine nuts, I warmed up to them.

Now, this recipe is our favorite way to make brussels sprouts. I especially love adding cayenne pepper for a kick.

These Sesame Soy Glazed Brussels Sprouts are super easy to make. They’re a great side with grilled chicken or pork tenderloin. Or you could cut them small in an Asian-inspired salad.

You’ll Need:

• 1 package brussels sprouts, thinly chopped
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 2 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tsp cayenne (optional!)
• sprinkle of sesame seeds
• sprinkle of pepitas

Sesame Soy Glazed Brussels Sprouts Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Warm honey in the microwave in 10 second increments until it’s warm, but not bubbling.

Toss all ingredients except sesame seeds and pepitas together and place in a baking dish.

Top with sesame seeds and pepitas.

Bake for 30 minutes or until sprouts reach desired crispiness.
