Crispy Air Fryer Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic
A delightful dish combining earthy Brussels sprouts with a tangy balsamic glaze, perfect as a side for any meal.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, their ends trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or more if necessary for that perfect coat
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar for rich, sweet flavor
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt adjusted to taste
- Black pepper to personal taste
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder optional for an aromatic kick
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by placing the cut Brussels sprouts in a bowl.
- Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar evenly over the Brussels sprouts.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly. If you like garlic flavor, add the garlic powder now.
- Stir carefully but thoroughly to ensure that the Brussels sprouts are well-coated in the marinade.
Cooking
- Place the seasoned Brussels sprouts in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
- Air fry at 360°F for about 15-20 minutes, shaking and gently stirring halfway through cooking.
- Continue air frying until the Brussels sprouts are beautifully golden brown and cooked through.
- Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed before serving.
Notes
To elevate your dish, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat or a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving. Ensure Brussels sprouts are uniformly sized for even cooking. To store leftovers, allow to cool, then refrigerate for up to 3 days.
