How to Make Roasted Brussels Sprouts With Hazelnut Brown Butter

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Position oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
  2. Place 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter in a large, rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 5-7 minutes, or until the butter is melted, golden brown, and fragrant, swirling the pan occasionally. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Add 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved or quartered if large) and 1/2 cup hazelnuts (roughly chopped) to the baking sheet. Toss gently to coat with the browned butter.
  4. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for 7-10 minutes, or until the sprouts begin to tenderize and brown.
  6. Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons of water over the sprouts, toss gently, and continue roasting for another 5-7 minutes, or until the sprouts are tender, caramelized, and slightly crispy. Adjust cooking time as needed depending on the size of your sprouts.
