Parmesan Crusted Brussel Sprouts

We will show you how to make roasted parmesan crusted brussel sprouts in the oven or do so after cooking fork tender but al dente Instant Pot Brussel Sprouts. A crispy vegetable side dish with shredded cheese on top that pairs well with any dinner.

Parmesan Brussel Sprouts

This is a rather firm veggie so typically you want to cook it low and slow. You can cook Brussel Sprouts at 450 a bit faster but you definitely don’t want the cheese to get too brown before your bites are tender to your liking so I do recommend lower, and could turn it up at the very end to really crisp up if desired.

Another method would be to make Parmesan Brussel Sprouts in the Air Fryer this way. Great throughout the year with your meal but for a larger crowd the oven is where it’s at y’all. If you needed to double it you could but your pan needs high sides like a 9×13″ dish so 2 would be necessary.

Parmesan Crusted Brussel Sprouts with Bacon

If you wanted to add something else into the mix you could. 1/3 cup precooked frozen bacon is a good choice, dried cranberries are another choice or chopped walnuts will bring another texture to the dish. As is is wonderful but just some suggestions.

If you wanted to add another vegetable into the mix, Brussel Sprouts and Sweet Potatoes work well. The one thing you need to remember is to keep pieces about the same size and overlap the least amount possible so everything cooks evenly.

• 2 c brussel sprouts halved, ends removed
• Parmesan cheese
• Butter melted
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• Garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp basil

Salt and pepper, onion powder, Old Bay or your favorite seasonings can be added into the parmesan mixture to your liking. A bit of minced garlic works well if you love that in all the things. Add in with the butter and swirl together. Perfect with chicken, beef or our Pressure Cooker Turkey Breast.

Want to add more of this same cheese to the top of your meat too, I get it. Try our Parmesan Crusted Chicken Air Fryer or with beef our Crusted Parmesan Steak is amazing this way too.
