Ingredients
  

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    In a large bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) until combined.

      Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss them well in the balsamic-honey mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

        Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side down for better caramelization.

          Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and nicely browned, shaking the pan halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.

            Remove from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese if desired, allowing it to melt slightly from the residual heat.

              Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
