Roasted Balsamic Brussels
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup avocado oil
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp fig preserves
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1-2 pounds fresh brussels sprouts cut in half
- 2-3 shallots peeled and halved
- 1 cup pomegranate arils
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
-
Make the dressing with the first 5 ingredients in a glass bowl. Whisk together.
-
Carve the pomegranate (or purchase pomegranate arils as is) – best way to do this is cut the pomegranate in half, then in smaller chunks so you can easily remove the arils from the pulp into a glass container.
-
Using a sheet pan, toss together brussels and shallots. Pour 2/3 of the dressing over the veggies and mix. Bake on lower rack for ~20-25 min. Watch closely and stir throughout the cooking time to prevent burning.
-
Remove the brussels from the oven, place into a serving dish and top with the pom arils and the remainder of the dressing. Mix in. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
NOTE: when carving your pomegranate, do not wear white or have critical papers nearby as the pom juice will travel! 🙂
