Steam Oven Crispy Parmesan Brussels Sprouts Bark

Try these roasted Brussels sprouts topped with a crisp Parmesan bark that sticks to each sprout for bold flavor and crunchy texture. Using Thermador’s Steam‑Convection you will get even browning and perfectly crisp cheese; it’s ready in under an hour and works great as a side or shareable appetizer.

Ingredients

4 servings:

1 pound Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and halved

3 Tablespoons olive oil, divided

2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Fresh ground black pepper, to taste

1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

Step 1

Pre-heat steam oven to 400°F on Steam Convection mode.

Step 2

In a bowl combine 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Add halved Brussels sprouts and toss to evenly coat with the marinade.

Step 4

Lay parchment paper on the unperforated steam oven pan and lightly oil parchment paper.

Step 5

Sprinkle grated cheese evenly in single layer over parchment sheet.

Step 6

Press Brussels sprouts cut side down on cheese, making sure cheese sticks to the Brussels sprouts

Step 7

Cook Brussels sprouts for about 20-25 minutes or until most of the cheese is dark golden brown and crispy and the Brussels are cooked to your liking.

Step 8

Allow the Brussels sprouts to rest for about 3-5 minutes. When cool enough to handle, break the cheese bark/crust between the Brussels sprouts into desired serving pieces (single sprouts, 2-piece sections, 4-piece sections, etc.).
