This quick and easy side dish pairs perfectly with our High Protein or From Scratch Lasagna recipes. Air frying the Brussels sprouts gives them a deliciously crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender. A splash of soy sauce and lemon juice adds a bright, savory flavor that makes this dish a versatile complement to a wide range of meals.

Preheat the air fryer to 375 F. Place Brussels sprouts, ghee, soy sauce and ground pepper in a large bowl. Toss until completely coated.
Working in batches if needed, spread Brussels sprouts in the basket of the air fryer so they are not touching. Cook for 15 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Remove from air fryer and transfer to a serving plate.
Squeeze with lemon and sprinkle with flaky salt. Serve immediately.

Can this be stored frozen?

We don’t recommend freezing the cooked sprouts. Raw Brussels sprouts can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Can this be made in advance?

Yes, cooked Brussels sprouts can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.

Can this be prepped in advance?

Yes, the Brussels sprouts can be cut and tossed with the ghee and soy mixture up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated before cooking.

What if my spouts won’t crisp in the air fryer?

We recommend cooking them in batches so that they are not touching. If they’re not crisp, return to the air fryer in batches and cook for 2-3 more minutes.

How do I make sure my sprouts brown evenly?

Cook them in batches and shake the air fryer basket once while cooking.

Will air-fried Brussels sprouts have the same texture as oven-roasted Brussels sprouts?

They will be similar in texture but have evenly crispy edges.

Can this be made with fresh or frozen Brussels sprouts?

For the best results we recommend fresh sprouts.
