Best 5 Baked Brussels Sprouts Recipes

BAKED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the Brussels sprouts into a casserole or Dutch oven with a lid. Arrange pieces of butter on top of the sprouts. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Cover with the lid.
• Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until sprouts are just barely tender. Stir now and then to keep them from sticking. During the last 10 minutes, sprinkle the pine nuts over the sprouts and remove the lid. When the sprouts are done, sprinkle blue cheese over them before serving.

CREAMED BAKED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a large high-sided saute pan or wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add half of the Brussels sprouts, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until the sprouts are softened and wilted, about 1 minute. Add the remaining sprouts and continue to cook until tender and bright green, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the Monterey Jack, cream, Parmesan and 1/3 cup of the salad dressing spread until combined. Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Stir the remaining 3 tablespoons salad dressing spread with the panko, parsley and remaining 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the top of the casserole. Bake until the breadcrumbs are well browned and toasted and the sauce is bubbling all over, 30 to 35 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.

RANCH-BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH BACON, BRUSSELS SPROUTS, AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken thighs in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Toss potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and garlic together with olive oil in a bowl until vegetables are lightly coated. Add vegetables around and between chicken thighs in the baking dish. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Evenly pour the entire packet of ranch seasoning over chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle chopped bacon on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place the baking dish under the broiler and cook until chicken skin becomes golden brown and a bit crisp, 2 to 3 minutes

BAKED RICE WITH BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND CHICKEN

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the brussels sprouts and blanch for 5 minutes. Drain well and cut sprouts in half. Set aside. Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large, deep, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear until browned, about 3 minutes each side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Begin to bring the chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Meanwhile, add the remaining oil to the skillet. Add the garlic and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon, for about 1 minute. Add the rice and stir constantly for 30 seconds. Add the boiling chicken broth, cumin, coriander, salt, pepper and orange zest.
• Turn the heat to low and simmer slowly, stirring frequently, until most but not all of the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Stir in the brussels sprouts and lay the chicken over the rice. Bake, uncovered, until the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and cover with a kitchen towel. Let stand for 10 minutes. Season the rice with additional salt if needed and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with cilantro. Divide the chicken and rice among 4 plates and serve immediately.

CREAMY BAKED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Defrost the brussels sprouts slightly in the microwave, just so you can cut them in half easily with a sharp knife.
• Cut all brussels sprouts in half, if needed so they are all similar in size.
• In another bowl, mix the rest of ingredients, add the brussels sprouts and toss lightly until they are all coated.
• Put into a greased casserole dish and bake about 1/2 hour in 325 degree oven until bubbly hot and the brussels sprouts are nice and tender.
