Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Small pot
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 1 shallot, peeled and sliced into wedges
- 2 teaspoons neutral oil
- 3 tablespoons butter, plant-based or dairy
- 1 tablespoon ancho chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cayenne powder
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup, more or less to taste
- 2 teaspoons white miso paste
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ½ lime, juiced
- Minced cilantro, optional for garnish
Instructions
Roast the Brussels sprouts:
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- Arrange the Brussels sprouts and shallot on a baking sheet and drizzle with the neutral oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Arrange the sprouts so that they are cut side down. Transfer to the oven for 16–18 minutes. They should begin to char and deepen in color.
Prepare the miso glaze:
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once bubbly, add the ancho chili powder, cayenne powder, and maple syrup. Stir regularly for 1 minute until fragrant. Turn off the heat.
- Off the heat, stir in the miso paste. Continue stirring constantly until the miso melts into the sauce and it becomes thick and emulsified. Taste and adjust the seasonings to your preference.
Finish the Brussels sprouts:
- Remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven. Drizzle the miso sauce on top and toss to coat. Return to the oven for 5 minutes.
To serve:
- Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving bowl. Add the lime juice and toss to coat. Garnish with cilantro and serve warm. Enjoy!
