Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Clean and trim Brussels sprouts, then mix Brussels sprouts and chopped shallot in a medium-sized bowl and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Pour onto a baking sheet and spread evenly.
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Then rotate and flip and bake for another 10-15 minutes. *Rotating and flipping helps them brown evenly so they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Take out the pan and pour the Brussels sprouts into a medium-sized bowl.
Add the aged balsamic vinegar and chopped nuts. Mix.
Check for seasoning and serve!
