• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Place the halved Brussels sprouts on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste and toss to coat evenly.
