Vegan Roasted Italian Brussels Sprouts with Arugula Pistachio Pesto Recipe
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- Trimmed Brussels sprouts are arranged neatly on a pan lined with parchment paper. Gently massage a few drops of high-quality olive oil onto your palms, then lightly toss and coat the Brussels sprouts with the oil, ensuring they’re evenly dressed for optimal roasting. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat the oven and roast the Brussels sprouts for 30 to 45 minutes, periodically turning them to ensure uniform browning after about 15 minutes. Prevent potential burning by reducing heat as needed. Brussels sprouts typically require a sweet, caramelized browning to bring out their natural sweetness and depth of flavor; ideal roasting conditions yield a deep, rich brown color.
- As the Brussels sprouts roast, prepare the accompanying sauce to bring out their natural flavors. Combine all ingredients in a food processor, then process until you achieve a silky consistency.
- Coat the Brussels sprouts evenly in a generous layer of pesto sauce, finishing with a sprinkle of toasted pistachios for added crunch and visual appeal. Serve immediately.
