Description

A delightful twist on roasted Brussels sprouts, these are coated in a flavorful gochujang butter sauce that adds a spicy kick and savory depth to this classic side dish.


Ingredients

Scale

Brussels Sprouts:

  • 1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Gochujang Butter:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

Garnish:

  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare Brussels sprouts: Toss Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them cut side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy.
  3. Make Gochujang Butter: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in gochujang, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and garlic. Cook until smooth and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
