Drawing from my background in environmental science, I always try to stick to seasonal eating! It’s one of the easiest (and most delicious!) ways to support local farmers and improve your carbon footprint.

Teriyaki Brussels Sprouts Tips and Tricks


How to Keep Your Brussels Sprouts Fresh

If you buy brussels sprouts still on the stalk, they tend to last longer than those that are already separated. Still, most fresh brussels sprouts can last up to one week when stored properly. On the stalk, they will last up to two.

The best way to store fresh brussels sprouts is dry in a sealed bag or airtight container in the “crisper” drawer in your refrigerator. Use a reusable storage bag for a more sustainable option.

Make sure the brussels sprouts are nice and dry when you store them. It’s best not to wash them until you’re ready to roast them.

Start by Prepping Your Brussels Sprouts

For the best teriyaki brussels sprouts, prep them first. Start by trimming off the rough ends. The rough end is the part of the brussels sprout where it was taken off the stalk.

Slice those ends off first. Then, slice the brussels sprouts in half longways. Simple as that!

The brussels sprouts tips can be composted or saved with other veggie scraps to make your own vegetable broth.

Add the Oil, Salt, & Pepper

Once you’ve prepped and sliced your brussels sprouts, spread them out on a baking tray. For easier cleanup, you can opt to line your baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Next, drizzle on your olive oil and season the sprouts with the salt and pepper.

Toss ‘Em

 Use clean hands to toss the brussels sprouts in the oil and seasoning. This will help to ensure the brussels sprouts are evenly coated.

Then, spread the brussels sprouts out in a single layer, so that they are not stacked on top of one another.

Roast Them

Roast the brussels sprouts for about 15 minutes, until they start to get crispy and brown around the edges.

Green tip: Get to know your oven! Get an idea of how long it takes your oven to preheat. By not pre-heating the oven too early, you can save energy.

Add the Teriyaki Sauce

Next, pour the teriyaki sauce right over the brussels sprouts. Use kitchen tongs or two wooden spoons to toss again, coating the brussels sprouts evenly in teriyaki sauce.

Finally, roast them a second time for an additional 10-15 minutes.

How to Make Sure You Get Your Brussels Sprouts Crispy

If your brussels sprouts are not getting crispy, chance are, your oven is not hot enough. To roast brussels sprouts so they’re crispy, they will need a total of about 25-30 minutes in the oven at 425°F.

When adding a sauce like teriyaki sauce, it’s best to roast them twice. Roast them for 15 minutes with just olive oil, salt, and pepper. Then toss with your teriyaki sauce before roasting for an addition 10-15 minutes.

How to Properly Store and Reheat Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Teriyaki Sauce

These Roasted Teriyaki Brussels Sprouts will last in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days. You can also freeze them for up to twelve months.

To thaw the brussels sprouts from frozen, transfer them from the freezer to the refrigerator and let them rest there overnight.

To reheat these leftover sprouts, bring your oven up to 350°F and roast them again as is (no need to add any extra oil or sauce) for 8-10 minutes until heated through.

Serving Your Brussels Sprouts with Teriyaki Sauce

These roasted brussels sprouts with teriyaki sauce have a lot of flavor. They’re subtly sweet with a mild tang from the teriyaki sauce and can add an extra layer of flavor to any plate or dish.

I love serving these with Fried Rice or this Sticky Orange Tofu.

  1. Good Day,

    In step 4 of the instructions for the Roasted Teriyaki Brussels Sprouts you mention adding the syrup and vinegar. I reviewed the ingredients and do not see syrup or vinegar. I would appreciate it if you could help me here.

    Thanks,
    Dennis

    1. Hi Dennis! I am so sorry for the confusion, that somehow copied over from another recipe. I have fixed the instructions and you should be able to access the edits by refreshing your browser. It should say “teriyaki sauce”, not “syrup and vinegar”.
