Ingredients
  

For the Brussels Sprouts
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
For the Coating
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
For Serving
  • Caesar dressing, for dipping (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Grease a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or olive oil.
  3. In a shallow bowl, add flour. In another bowl, place beaten eggs. In a third bowl, mix panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne.
Coating the Brussels Sprouts
  1. Toss halved Brussels sprouts in flour to coat evenly. Shake off the excess flour.
  2. Dunk the flour-coated sprouts in the beaten eggs, allowing any extra egg to drip off.
  3. Dredge the egg-coated sprouts in the panko mixture, pressing gently to ensure crumbs adhere.
  4. Place each coated Brussels sprout on the greased baking sheet, spacing them out for even cooking.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip halfway through for even crispness.
  2. Remove from the oven and serve immediately, optionally with Caesar dressing on the side.

Notes

Use fresh Brussels sprouts for the best flavor and texture. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to ensure crispiness.
