Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper if desired.
2. Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3. Spread the Brussels sprouts cut side down on the baking sheet in a single layer.
4. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until tender and deeply golden on the edges.
5. While the Brussels sprouts roast, add soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger to a small saucepan over medium heat.
6. Stir the sauce until smooth and lightly bubbling.
7. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
8. Pour the slurry into the saucepan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the glaze thickens.
9. Transfer the hot roasted Brussels sprouts to a large bowl.
10. Pour the teriyaki glaze over the Brussels sprouts and toss gently until fully coated.
11. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and red pepper flakes if using.
12. Serve immediately.
Notes
Roast the Brussels sprouts cut side down so they get the best caramelized color and crisp texture.
Do not overcrowd the pan or the sprouts will steam instead of roast.
For extra flavor, finish with a small drizzle of sesame oil just before serving.
