Cooking Method: Roasting

Salt & Vinegar Sheet-Pan Chicken & Brussels Sprouts

My family loves salt and vinegar potato chips. So when I saw this recipe I had to make it. Salt & Vinegar Sheet-Pan Chicken & Brussels Sprouts is an easy one-pan meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. The chicken is roasted with Brussels sprouts, red onions, and a vinegar mixture that gives the dish a tangy, flavorful kick. The whole meal cooks in just 25 minutes.

Roasted Cabbage Wedges with Miso Ginger Scallion Butter

Roasted Cabbage Wedges with Miso Ginger Scallion Butter is a delicious and healthy side dish. The cabbage is roasted until tender and caramelized, and the miso ginger scallion butter adds a flavorful and savory touch. It's topped with roasted pistachios. Our guests went crazy for this and it's so easy to make.

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds

Spatchcock Chicken with Miso and Sesame Seeds is butterflied and roasted, so it cooks evenly. The miso glaze adds a rich, buttery flavor and it's finished with sesame seeds, which adds a nutty crunch. You could also just cut up the chicken instead of spatchcocking it to make it easier.

Pistachio Crusted Salmon

This Pistachio Crusted Salmon is delicious. The salmon gets slathered in Dijon mustard and honey (I used hot honey, of course) and then dipped in the pistachios. I just checked and found out I have 78 different salmon recipes on my blog! We try to eat salmon once a week.

Smashed Parmesan Roasted Broccoli

Smashed Parmesan Roasted Broccoli is easy and delicious. The broccoli is first steamed until tender, and tossed with olive oil, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. It's then smashed on a sheet pan with the bottom of a glass and topped with parmesan cheese. Smashing the broccoli, it creates a flatter surface for the cheese to adhere to, and it also helps to release some of the broccoli's natural sugars, which caramelize in the oven and give the broccoli a crunchy texture.

Crispy Parmesan Carrots

These Crispy Parmesan Carrots are so delicious and easy to make. They are made by roasting carrots in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, spices, and Parmesan cheese. The result is a crispy, cheesy, and flavorful side dish. I also make Roasted Crispy Parmesan Potatoes using the same method.

Black Pig’s Smokey Scamorza Pork Sandwich with Fennel Apple Slaw

This is another recipe from Borough Market in London. My daughter Zoe gave it another rave review. She came over and described it and I just happened to have a pork shoulder in the fridge. Not sure what I was planning on doing with it, but this seemed like kismet. So we made the Black Pig's Smokey Scamorza Pork Sandwich with Fennel Apple Slaw. Yes, I know, you're thinking that sounds rather involved! It's actually not all that much work, though you do need about 5 hours to roast the pork. I actually did it in my slow cooker. The Black Pig does them on a Big Green Egg, which  I happen to have, but was to lazy to embark. This recipe uses Scamorza cheese, which is a tad difficult to procure and rather pricey. You can substitute mozzarella. Anyway, the combination of the fennel apple slaw, the pork and cheese is outstanding. Oh, and it gets smothered in Parmesan to serve.

Salmon with Calabrian Chili Sauce & Honey

The Calabrian chili is a versatile Italian pepper with a rich red color, fruity flavor and a nice level of heat for spicy food lovers. They are native to Calabria, Italy, and are one of the most popular peppers in Southern Italy. This Salmon with Calabrian Chili Sauce & Honey is very simple to make and the spicy/sweet sauce really works well with the fatty salmon.

Marinated Brussel Sprouts

These Marinated Brussels Sprouts are delicious and healthy. They are made by marinating Brussels sprouts in a flavorful mixture of Dijon mustard, maple syrup, soy sauce, and garlic. The marinade helps to tenderize the Brussels sprouts and infuse them with flavor. I marinated these for 24 hours and then roasted them in a hot oven until crispy. You can also put them in an air fryer.
