Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Chinese Sausage Recipe
Tips: Chinese sausage is very flavorful! Be careful of how much fish sauce or soy sauce you add to the brussels sprouts. Just a touch is enough.Do not toss the Chinese sausage with any cooking oil. The sausage cooks faster than the Brussels sprouts, so make sure you keep them separate on the baking sheet.If you don't have Fish Sauce, substitute with soy sauce, Bragg's Liquid Aminos, Tamari (Gluten Free) or Coconut Aminos (Paleo friendly).
Preheat oven to 400F. On a baking sheet, toss the quartered Brussels sprouts with the cooking oil. Make some space on the baking sheet for the Chinese sausage. The Chinese sausage will cook next to the Brussels sprouts, but do not mix them together.
Add the Chinese sausage on the baking sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes (make sure the sausage does not burn). Remove baking sheet from oven, remove Chinese sausage to a serving bowl, set aside. Give the Brussels sprouts a toss, and return them to the oven to bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until tender and lightly browned. Timing depends on size of Brussels sprouts - pierce with fork to see if tender.
Drizzle the fish sauce over the Brussels sprouts, season with black pepper and toss well. Add the Brussels sprouts to the serving bowl with the Chinese sausage and mix well.
