4 servings

Ingredients

Brussels sprouts (1 pound, trimmed and halved)
Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)
Balsamic vinegar (2 tablespoons)
Honey (1 tablespoon)
Feta cheese (1/2 cup, crumbled)
Panko breadcrumbs (1/4 cup)
Garlic powder (1/4 teaspoon)
Paprika (1/4 teaspoon)
Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until they’re evenly coated.

Spread the sprouts in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking halfway through.

While the sprouts are cooking, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey in a small bowl until well combined.

In a separate bowl, mix together the crumbled feta cheese, Panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, and paprika.

Once the Brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized, transfer them to a serving dish.

Drizzle the balsamic honey glaze over the sprouts and sprinkle the feta-Panko mixture evenly over the top.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Use high-quality balsamic vinegar for the best flavor in the glaze. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket, cook in batches if necessary, to ensure the Brussels sprouts cook evenly.

If using a different type of cheese, keep in mind it might affect the flavor and texture of the dish.

For an extra crispy top, broil the dish for 1-2 minutes after adding the feta-Panko mixture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but it’s best served fresh.

You can prep the balsamic honey glaze and feta-Panko mixture ahead of time, just refrigerate or freeze until ready to assemble the dish.

This recipe is perfect as a side dish or add some protein like chicken or bacon for a satisfying main course.
