Caramelized brussels sprouts

By LHPollack

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds of Brussels sprouts (I only used 1 lb.)
• 3 Tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (I used 2 Tbs.)
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt or 1/2 teaspoon of table salt (I used less then 1/2 a teaspoon of table salt)
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar (I used less then 1/2 teaspoon of white sugar)
• Lemon wedges, for serving

Preparation

Step 1

First, set oven to 500 degrees (yep, that’s 500 degrees of HOT) and place a baking pan on the bottom rung to heat.
Take Brussels sprouts and trim the bottoms, remove any “unfriendly” leaves, cut in half and place in a large bowl
Add extra virgin olive oil and toss till coated. Then add salt and sugar and toss till coated.

Remove HOT pan from oven.

Place the Brussels sprouts flat side done evenly across the pan.
Place pan back in the oven for 10-12 minutes.
