Balsamic Glazed Brussels Sprouts

As mentioned numerous times, I heart balsamic vinegar. I mean, I really do have an unnatural obsession with it. I also love brussels sprouts and cooked onions. So really, I knew that this dish would quickly become a favorite.

It was absolutely delicious. The recipe card called for 1 red onion, but I used 1/2 red onion, 1/2 sweet onion. I think any type would be equally delicious.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh brussels sprouts trimmed of external leaves, stems discarded and with an X cut in the bottom of each
  • 1/2 red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/2 sweet onion thinly sliced
  • 5 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 shallot chopped
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Combine brussels sprouts and onion in a medium bowl with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss gently. Spread on lightly greased baking sheet. Roast 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until vegetables are tender and caramelized.
