Crispy Brussels Sprouts Tacos with Avocado Lime Sauce
Roast Brussels sprouts with a hint of smoked paprika and cumin. Serve in warm tortillas, top with a creamy avocado lime sauce, and garnish with fresh cilantro.
Ingredients
For the Brussels Sprouts:
- 500 grams or 4 cups Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Avocado Lime Sauce:
- 2 ripe avocados
- Juice of 2 limes or lemons
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro / coriander chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Serving:
- 8 tortillas warmed
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the trimmed and halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, smoked paprika, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss until the sprouts are evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the Avocado Lime Sauce. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocados, lime juice, minced garlic, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. If needed, add a splash of water to achieve your desired consistency.
- Once the Brussels sprouts are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
- To assemble the tacos, spread a generous spoonful of the Avocado Lime Sauce onto each warmed tortilla. Add a portion of the crispy Brussels sprouts on top.
- Optionally, garnish with extra cilantro or any other toppings of your choice.
- Serve the tacos warm and enjoy!
