Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Spread the brussels sprouts on a large rimmed baking sheet and roast for about 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until brown and tender.

In a medium serving bowl, whisk the honey with the lemon juice, thyme, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the brussels sprouts, toss to coat, and serve.

Estimated Start-to-Finish Time: Not Given
Actual Start-to-Finish Time: 50 minutes
Substitutions: The original recipe recommended a 30 minute cooking time, but my brussels sprouts were well-browned and plenty tender in about 22 minutes. The authors note that it is a good idea to try to purchase sprouts of uniform size so that they will all take the same amount of time to cook.
