Roasted Brussels Sprouts

• 1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed off & any yellowed leaves removed
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp fresh-ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 400 F. Meanwhile, put trimmed Brussels sprouts, oil, salt, & pepper in large jar or resealable plastic bag and shake them to coat with the oil & s/p. Then pour them from the jar or bag onto a rimmed baking sheet, and place it on center oven rack.

Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 min, shaking pan every 5 to 7 min. for even browning. Reduce heat when necessary to prevent burning. Brussels sprouts should be dark brown when done. Adjust seasoning and serve immediately. Great Thanksgiving dish!  (recipe source--there's also a recipe on the same page for "Saucy Brussels Sprouts"!)
