What Kind of Brussels Sprouts Should I Use?

Fresh is best. Look for bright green, tightly packed Brussels sprouts with minimal browning. Smaller sprouts tend to be sweeter and more tender, but even large ones roast beautifully when halved. Frozen sprouts are not ideal for this recipe since they won’t crisp up the same way.

How To Make the Longhorn Steakhouse Brussels Sprouts

Step 1: Prep and Preheat

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Rinse and trim the Brussels sprouts, then slice them in half.

Step 2: Season and Roast

Place the sprouts on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 3: Make the Glaze

While the sprouts roast, mix honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and minced garlic in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 4: Toss and Serve

Remove the sprouts from the oven and immediately toss them in the glaze. Serve hot for the best texture and flavor.
