Ingredients
  

1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

3 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons sesame seeds (for garnish)

2 green onions, sliced thinly (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot enough for roasting.

    In a large mixing bowl, place the halved Brussels sprouts along with the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Use your hands or a spatula to toss the ingredients together until the Brussels sprouts are nicely coated.

      Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the sheet.

        Roast the sprouts in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Halfway through, stir them to ensure even browning and tenderness. Look for a golden brown color and a lightly crispy texture.

          While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the honey Sriracha glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and Sriracha sauce until smooth and well combined. Adjust the spiciness to your liking by adding more or less Sriracha.

            Once the Brussels sprouts are finished roasting, remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle the honey Sriracha mixture over them. Toss thoroughly to ensure every sprout is coated in the sweet and spicy glaze.

              Return the coated Brussels sprouts to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes, which allows the glaze to caramelize and create a delightful sticky coating.

                After roasting, take the sprouts out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.

                  For a beautiful finishing touch, sprinkle sesame seeds and the sliced green onions over the top to add a nutty flavor and freshness.
