Calm Eats: Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic and Crispy Chickpeas

Yield: 4

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cook time: 25 MINUTES

Total time: 30 MINUTES

Ingredients

• 1 lb. Brussels Sprouts, halved

• 1 large shallot or 1/2 red onion

• 5 tsp. balsamic vinegar

• 1 Tbsp. sweet chili sauce

• 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil plus 2 tsp.

• 1 tbsp. sunflower seeds

• ¼-cup crispy roasted chickpeas

• 2 Tbsp. dried cranberries

• ½-tsp. salt

• ¼-tsp. ground pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Add halved Brussels Sprouts along with 2 Tbsp. olive oil, salt and pepper to parchment paper-lined roasting tray. Toss well to combine. Roast for 20-25 minutes tossing once halfway.

* If you want to be precise and have the Brussels Sprouts turn out perfectly roasted, make sure they’re placed face down when initially putting them in the oven.

2. In a small bowl, combine balsamic vinegar with sweet chili sauce and a pinch of salt. Mix until fully incorporated and set aside.

3. Pre-heat skillet on medium heat. Add 2 tsp. olive oil shallot or red onion. Cook until shallot is crispy (about 5 minutes).

4. Once Brussels Sprouts are soft and crispy, add them to the skillet along with the dressing. Serve with crispy chickpeas, sunflower seeds and cranberries.
