Preparation
Step 1
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking oil spray.
Heat oil in pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add sprouts, season with salt and pepper. Once hot, add your brussels sprouts and shake pan so sprouts land cut side down in a single layer. Let them cook, undisturbed, until slightly charred and caramelized (about 6-8 minutes).
Melt the butter in the pan. Stir the butter through the sprouts, then add the garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds), stirring through the sprouts.
Transfer sprouts to the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until just fork tender.
Remove from oven and top with the cheese. Return to oven and broil (or grill) until the cheese melts and becomes golden (about 4-5 minutes).
Adjust salt and pepper, if needed. Serve immediately.
