Sure-fire recipe:

Rinse and boil whole brussel sprouts in a little salted water (I place about ½-inch of salted water in the bottom of a covered saucepan and toss the sprouts in the water before bringing it to the boil) until they're semi-tender, then rinse them thoroughly under ice-cold water to arrest the cooking process. Set them on paper towel to dry.

Cut the very bottoms off and then cut the brussel sprouts in half (length-wise).

Spread a ½-and-½ mixture of extra virgin olive oil and a good balsamic vinegar over the entire surface of a baking sheet.

Crack ground sea salt (I like Himalayan) and ground pepper (I like the 5-berry sort) over the surface of the baking sheet.

Place the brussel sprout halves cut-side down on the baking sheet.

Roast in a 450ºF oven for approximately 5 to 10 minutes (until the upper leaves begin to 'toast' (darken) a bit.

Serve.
