Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds small Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 16 pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, toss Brussels sprouts with olive oil and salt; arrange in an even layer on prepared baking sheet, cut side down.
  • Transfer to oven and roast until brown and tender, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through baking; transfer to a large bowl.
  • In a small saucepan, mix together vinegar, maple syrup, orange juice, and orange zest; heat over medium heat until heated through but not simmering. Remove from heat and whisk in cold butter, a few pieces at a time, until smooth and creamy. Pour vinegar mixture over Brussels sprouts and gently stir until liquid is absorbed and mixture is well combined; serve immediately.
