Buffalo Roasted Brussels

Roasted Brussels sprouts take a dip in a spicy hot sauce bath for a veggie-forward version of the classic wings. A touch of honey balances the flavors and blue cheese (like Gorgonzola) adds a creamy burst of flavor. Make these vegan-friendly by using dairy-free butter, agave nectar instead of honey, and your favorite dressing for dipping (omit the blue cheese, too.)

Method

Preheat oven to 400°F with oven rack placed in the top third position.


On a rimmed baking sheet, toss Brussels sprouts with oil, salt and pepper. Arrange the sprouts so they’re all cut-side down in an even layer.


Roast until deep golden brown, crisp outside and just tender inside, 25¬–30 minutes. The leaves that are loose will be especially brown and crispy.


Towards the end of cooking time, whisk hot sauce, butter and honey in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until warm. Transfer to a large bowl.


Add Brussels sprouts to the sauce and toss until well coated. Transfer to a serving dish alongside the ranch dressing and top with celery leaves, chives and blue cheese (if using).
