Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1/2 medium red onion
  • 2 tbsp. white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp. soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
  • kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut off and discard the stem end of the sprout. Slice the sprouts in half lengthwise. Keep any leaves that fall off. These will crisp up nicely in the oven.
  • Dice the red onion.
  • Combine miso paste, Dijon mustard, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey and lemon juice. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 425F. Place large baking sheet oven to preheat.
  • In a bowl, coat trimmed brussels and leaves with avocado oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Carefully, remove hot baking sheet from oven and place the brussels sprouts cut side down. There should be a sizzle to get the sear started.
  • Roast for 15 - 20 minutes, untouched. Remove from oven and flip each sprout or give them a stir. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 5-10 minutes, until deep brown and tender.
  • Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add diced red onion. Stir frequently until brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add the lemon miso sauce to the onions. Stir to combine. Remove from heat once warm, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Transfer warm sprouts to a serving bowl and drizzle with the lemon miso mixture. Reserve some of the sauce for dipping. Garnish with sesame seeds, serve and enjoy!
