Miso-Sesame Glazed Brussels Sprouts

These Miso-Sesame Glazed Brussels Sprouts with crispy panko-Parmesan topping are a restaurant-worthy side. Charred and crispy on the outside, meaty on the inside, and with the most addictive miso glaze, they're a must-make!

Equipment

  • Large oven-safe skillet (such as a cast iron)
  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. white miso paste
  • 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil
  • 1 Tbsp. soy sauce or tamari
  • 1/2 tsp. chili flakes
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. neutral cooking oil (I use avocado oil)
  • 1 lb. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1/4 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Combine miso paste, Dijon mustard, rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, and chili flakes in a blender; blend on low speed until combined. Increase the blender speed to medium-high, and slowly stream in 1/4 cup of oil. Set aside.
    *You can also whisk this by hand if you don't want to dirty the blender.
  • Preheat oven broiler to HIGH.
    Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. of oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Once hot, add Brussels sprouts and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until nicely browned and tender. Season with salt.
    Meanwhile, add panko, Parmesan, and sesame seeds to a medium bowl; toss to combine.
  • Pour miso-sesame mixture into skillet with Brussels sprouts and toss to coat. Sprinkle panko mixture overtop, and transfer skillet to upper center rack of oven. Broil for ~2 minutes, until a golden-brown crust forms. *Watch closely to prevent burning.
    Remove from oven, stir, and serve!

Notes

To Store. Transfer Brussels sprouts in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
To Reheat. Gently rewarm leftovers in a large skillet on the stove over medium heat until warmed through, adding in a splash of rice vinegar to perk them back up.
You can also microwave the Brussels sprouts on a microwave-safe plate in 30 second increments until warm. My other favorite method is the oven: warm at 350ºF until heated through (about 5 or so minutes).
