Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, bottoms trimmed, bruised or browned outer leaves removed, then halved
  • 1 large fennel bulb, core removed and thinly sliced
  • 1 large leek, white and pale green parts only, thinly sliced and rinsed thoroughly
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Chinese five spice
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

  2. Combine oil, vinegar, brown sugar, five spice, salt, and pepper in a large bowl and whisk well.

  3. Add brussels sprouts, fennel, and leeks to the bowl and gently toss to coat.

  4. Spread vegetables on a parchment-lined sheet pan and roast for about 30 minutes or until golden brown and tender.
  5. Sprinkle with salt to taste and serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
  • A hot oven works best to roast the vegetables quickly and give them golden brown, caramelized edges.
  • Try to keep the vegetables relatively the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Stir the vegetables a few times as they cook to prevent burning.
