Begin by preparing the Brussels sprouts as instructed, usually involving trimming and halving them. Then, combine them with the included seasoning and oil in a bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated. Spread the seasoned sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in a preheated oven until they are tender on the inside and nicely browned and slightly crispy on the outside. The roasting process brings out their natural sweetness and creates a pleasing texture.
