Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4, 1/2 cup per serving

Ingredients

Cooking spray
1 10-ounce package frozen brussels sprouts
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons chopped pecans
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

    Step 2

    Put the brussels sprouts in a single layer on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.

    Step 3

    Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, stirring occasionally.

    Step 4

    Meanwhile, put the pecans in a single layer in a small skillet over medium heat. Dry-roast for about 4 minutes, or until just fragrant, stirring frequently. Remove from the skillet so they don’t burn.

    Step 5

    Transfer the brussels sprouts to a medium bowl. Add the vinegar, tossing to coat. Sprinkle with the pecans.

  2. Time-Saver

    Step 6

    When time allows, dry-roast extra nuts. Freeze what you don’t need right away in an airtight freezer bag for up to three months, and the nuts will be ready whenever you need them.
