Beautiful roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, orange zest, and olive oil.
Yields: 2 side-dish size servings, easily doubled or tripled
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil.
In a bowl, mix together the vinegar, maple syrup, orange zest, olive oil, and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Add the sliced brussels sprouts and toss until well-coated. Place the sprouts cut-side-down on the foil and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until browned and crisp-tender. Taste for seasoning and add more salt or pepper as needed. Serve promptly while hot.
