This is a perfect and healthy side dish for the fall and winter months. Between these sprouts and my 8-minute roasted broccoli, I’m all set for easy weeknight healthy sidedishes. I also used virgin coconut oil in this recipe, as it’s a better oil to use at higher heat temps, and gives these sprouts a touch of sweetness, perfect for the kiddos. You can use olive oil here as well, and add a splash of freshly squeezed lemon juice after roasting, along with some parmesan to add a kick of flavor, like my friend Stacy does. You could even be bad and toss in some crispy bacon or pancetta, the list goes on and on…

Slice the sprouts in half from stem to top.
Toss the cut sprouts with the coconut oil and sea salt.
Set a cast-iron skillet over high heat. When drops of water evaporate on the skillet, then the skillet is ready for roasting.
Set the sprouts cut-side down on the hot skillet. Don’t crowd the sprouts, as you want them all to be in contact with the bottom of the pan so they can get all crispy.

Ingredients
Instructions
Let's get started, shall we! Wash and trim the bottoms of the sprouts and remove any raggy outer leaves.
Slice the sprouts in half from stem to top.
To melt the coconut oil, just put it in a small glass bowl and microwave it for 25-30 seconds.
Toss the cut sprouts with the coconut oil and sea salt.
Place an oven rack a few inches below your broiler, and turn on your broiler.
Set a cast-iron skillet over high heat. When drops of water evaporate on the skillet, then the skillet is ready for roasting.
Set the sprouts cut-side down on the hot skillet. Don't crowd the sprouts, as you want them all to be in contact with the bottom of the pan so they can get all crispy.
Set the skillet under the broiler, and roast the sprouts until the sprouts are evenly charred, about 4-6 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven and serve them up! Voila!
See how quick and easy that was? I mean who doesn't love a quick and easy healthy sidedish!
