Ingredients

Brussels Sprouts

2 lbs brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
3 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Pepper

Gochujang Sauce

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic minced
⅓ cup gochujang
¼ cup pure maple syrup
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Garnish

3 stalks green onions thinly sliced
½ tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

Prep the oven. Preheat your oven to 450°F. Place your oven rack in the center of your oven.
Roast Brussels sprouts. In a large mixing bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly on two baking sheets in a single layer. Roast the Brussels sprouts rotating the baking sheets halfway and flipping the brussels sprouts, until they are charred about 30 minutes.
Make gochujang sauce. In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Then cook the minced garlic until fragrant and lightly browned. Then add the gochujang, soy sauce, maple syrup, and water and mix until combined. Remove from heat and mix in the sesame oil.
Combine. Combine the Brussels sprouts and gochujang sauce in a bowl and toss to combine. Transfer to a platter and garnish with green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!

Notes

Toss with enough olive oil. Make sure to coat the Brussels sprouts evenly with olive oil. The oil helps them crisp up during roasting in the oven.
Spread evenly on the pan. Spread the Brussels sprouts evenly in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Overcrowding can lead to steaming instead of roasting so make sure they have enough space on the baking sheet.
Flip halfway. Toss or flip the Brussels sprouts halfway through the roasting time to ensure even cooking and browning.
Remove the sauce from the heat before adding sesame oil. Make sure to remove the sauce from the heat before adding sesame oil to ensure the sesame flavor does not get cooked away.
Storage Instructions: You can store these Asian-style brussels sprouts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheat: to reheat any leftover Korean Brussels sprouts, microwave covered until warm. Or you can bake them on a baking sheet at 350°F for 5 minutes or until warm.
