Raise your hand if you’re in a side dish rut!
Unlike my current hair rut (another day another ponytail,) wardrobe rut (all gray everyday) and musicrut (one word: MOANA,)a side dish rut is a simple one to get out of. If you’re like me and have entrees planned out for the week but find yourself toe tapping in front of the refrigerator every night trying to decide what to serve with them, tryTHESE >> Sweet Chili Roasted Brussels Sprouts!
Watch How to Make Them!
Simply seasoned roasted brussels sprouts halves are brushed with sweet chili sauce then popped back into the oven until they’re sticky, glazed, and sizzling. RIGHT? A sprinkling of chopped peanuts on top is the icing on the cake. Proverbial of course, because, gross. I mean, this combination of salty, savory, sweet, and a touch spicy sounded yummy in my head, but it turned out even more delicious than I imagined. LOVE when that happens!
We never ate brussels sprouts growing up so I only know of them in their Heavenly-tasting roasted or shredded form, aka my favorite ways to cook them. But if you were the victimof a boiled brussels sprouts upbringing, try this recipe before writing them off forever. The sweet/savory combination is a can’t miss, plus I promise they’ll liven up any dinner you pair them with!
There’s only 2 steps to this recipe. First, trim then halve 1-3/4lb brussels sprouts and add them to the center of a foil-lined, nonstick-sprayed baking sheet. Drizzle on 1 Tablespoonextra virgin olive oil and garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste then toss with your fingers to coat andarrange the sprouts in a single layer cut side down. Roast at 425 degrees until golden brown, 15-17 minutes.
Next, stir together 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce and 2 teaspoonsgluten-free Tamari or soy sauce(dish will not be GF if using traditional soy sauce,) then use a pastry brush to gently dabthe mixture on top of the roasted sprouts. Pop them back into the oven for 5-7 minutes or until the glaze is hot and bubbly.
Serve the sprouts with extra sweet chili sauce for dipping, if you please, and a sprinkling of chopped peanuts for a little crunch and pop of saltiness to contrast the sweet sauce. I am telling you – this side dish recipe is SO KILLER!!!! The sprouts would pair well with any of the dishes I’m linking tobelow, whichalso call for sweet chili sauce, but also any fun burger recipe, salmon or shrimp dish, or heck even as a sidecar to a simple dinner of sauteed chicken breasts. Whatever you pair them with – enjoy!

Made this recipe and boyfriend went nuts over it. He even ate it again for breakfast the next morning! I used frozen brussel sprouts because that is what I had and they were wonderful!

This was amazing! I did add bacon and I tossed in the bacon grease instead of oil and salt and pepper. Even my teen son loved it.

I recently had these as a side with my lunch at a restaurant and gave been meaning to recreate them at home. They were so delicious I wanted to order another serving. The restaurant did not add the chopped peanuts, but I think that is a brilliant addition! Love your recipes; this one will be on our dinner table this week

I made this with regular soy sauce and put fried onions on after (no peanuts) with extra sweet chili sauce. So delicious!

Where do you get your GF nuts? I know Blue diamond almonds are GF but besides ordering online (and paying a ton) I can’t find any. Thanks!
