Notes

When you’re buying your Brussels sprouts, look for ones that are super fresh. They should be relatively firm and bright green with minimal wilted leaves on the outsides.
Tossing these beauties in olive oil is also a big key to getting Brussels sprouts beautifully crispy.
My last tip (and maybe most important), make sure each sprout is cut side down when roasting. It’s worth the extra couple minutes it takes to flip them over.
