Ingredients

  • 1 lb brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 oz prosciutto torn into bite sized pieces
  • ¼ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze to taste as a garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the sprouts cut side down on the baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they aren’t overcrowded.
  • Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until browned and crispy on the edges.
  • While the sprouts roast, heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the torn prosciutto pieces and cook for 3–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to cool.
  • Once the Brussels sprouts are done, immediately drizzle with balsamic glaze, sprinkle with Parmesan, and top with the crispy prosciutto. Serve right away.

Notes

Storage and Reheating
  • Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Microwave: Heat in 30-second intervals until warmed through 
  • Air Fryer: Reheat at 350°F for 3–5 minutes until crisp.
  • Oven: Reheat at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, uncovered.
Cooking Tips
  • Roast cut-side down 
  • Use a dry skillet for the prosciutto or roast at 375 for 7-10 minutes.
  • Watch closely to be sure you don't overcook the prosciutto
  • Don't throw away the loose leaves from the Brussels sprouts. These crisp up really nicely in the oven.
