Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.

2. 2

   Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts, discarding any tough outer leaves, and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

3. 3

   Drizzle the Brussels sprouts with olive oil and sprinkle with za'atar seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure they are evenly coated.

4. 4

   Spread the seasoned Brussels sprouts cut side down on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even roasting.

5. 5

   Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the Brussels sprouts are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

6. 6

   While the Brussels sprouts roast, prepare the lemon garlic tahini dip. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, maple syrup, water, and a pinch of salt. Adjust the water to achieve your desired dip consistency.

7. 7

   Taste the dip and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice if needed.

8. 8

   Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted and crispy, transfer them to a serving platter and serve immediately with the lemon garlic tahini dip on the side.
