{"slug":"brussels-sprouts-with-ruby-red-honey-ginger-soy-glaze","collection":"recipes","is_recipe":true,"visibility":"public","title":"Brussels Sprouts with Ruby Red Honey Ginger Soy Glaze","description":"Halved Brussels sprouts steamed under foil in a hot oven, then tossed with a glaze of ruby red grapefruit juice, honey, soy sauce, garlic and fresh ginger reduced on the stove to the consistency of runny honey.","body_md":"1. **Heat the oven:** Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F).\n\n2. **Season the sprouts:** Put the 300g (3 cups) halved Brussels sprouts in a baking dish that holds them in roughly one layer, about 20cm (8in) square. Toss with the 1 tbsp melted coconut oil until well coated, then toss in the 1 tsp lemon pepper.\n\n3. **Steam in the oven:** Cover the dish tightly with a doubled sheet of foil and bake for 15–18 minutes, until the sprouts are tender. Take the dish out and keep it covered.\n\n4. **Start the glaze:** While the sprouts bake, warm the 1 tbsp sesame oil and 2 tsp minced garlic in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat and cook for 2–3 minutes. Add the 240ml (1 cup) grapefruit juice, 113g (⅓ cup) honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp grated ginger, ¼ tsp sea salt and ¼ tsp black pepper.\n\n5. **Reduce:** Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens to the consistency of runny honey.\n\n6. **Glaze and serve:** Drizzle a third to a half of the glaze over the sprouts and toss to coat. Serve the rest at the table for drizzling.\n\n## Notes\n\n- **Source and status:** Ally's Kitchen (\"honey ginger glazed brussels sprouts\"), added 2026-10-04 from pasted text and rewritten in house style. Cooked here before it was recorded.\n- **The sprout weight is an estimate.** The source gives 3 cups of halved sprouts and no weight; 300g assumes about 100g per cup, which is roughly 340g before trimming.\n- **Oil replaces cooking spray.** The source coats the sprouts with coconut or canola cooking spray; 1 tbsp of melted coconut oil is an estimate of the equivalent. Any neutral oil works.\n- **The dish size is an addition.** The source names no size; 20cm (8in) square is an estimate for 300g of sprouts in one layer.\n- **Times are estimates.** The source gives none. The 20 minutes of cooking assumes the glaze is made while the sprouts bake.\n- **Yield:** the source says \"4+ servings (depending upon size)\".\n- **Honey** is converted at the house rate of 340g per cup.\n- **This makes more glaze than the sprouts need,** by the source's design: half to two thirds is left for the table.\n- **Vegetarian, not vegan,** because of the honey.\n","draft":false,"servings":"4 servings","prep_time":"10 min","cook_time":"20 min","total_time":"30 min","times":{"prep":{"minutes":10},"cook":{"minutes":20},"total":{"minutes":30}},"source_name":"Ally's Kitchen","source_url":"https://allyskitchen.com/honey-ginger-glazed-brussels-sprouts/","created_at":"2026-10-04T23:17:56.065191Z","updated_at":"2026-10-04T23:22:34.176915Z","categories":["Side Dish"],"tags":["Brussels Sprouts","Ginger","Glaze","Grapefruit","Honey"],"methods":["Baked","Stove-Top"],"themes":["Vegetarian"],"ingredients":[{"section":"Brussels sprouts","items":["300g (3 cups) Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise","1 tbsp coconut oil, melted","1 tsp lemon pepper"],"parsed":[{"raw":"300g (3 cups) Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise","qty":300,"unit":"g","item":"Brussels sprouts","prep":"trimmed and halved lengthwise"},{"raw":"1 tbsp coconut oil, melted","qty":1,"unit":"tbsp","item":"coconut oil","prep":"melted"},{"raw":"1 tsp lemon pepper","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"lemon pepper"}]},{"section":"Glaze","items":["1 tbsp sesame oil","2 tsp garlic, minced","240ml (1 cup) ruby red grapefruit juice","113g (⅓ cup) honey","2 tbsp soy sauce","1 tsp fresh ginger, grated","¼ tsp sea salt","¼ tsp coarsely ground black pepper"],"parsed":[{"raw":"1 tbsp sesame oil","qty":1,"unit":"tbsp","item":"sesame oil"},{"raw":"2 tsp garlic, minced","qty":2,"unit":"tsp","item":"garlic","prep":"minced"},{"raw":"240ml (1 cup) ruby red grapefruit juice","qty":240,"unit":"ml","item":"ruby red grapefruit juice"},{"raw":"113g (⅓ cup) honey","qty":113,"unit":"g","item":"honey"},{"raw":"2 tbsp soy sauce","qty":2,"unit":"tbsp","item":"soy sauce"},{"raw":"1 tsp fresh ginger, grated","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"fresh ginger","prep":"grated"},{"raw":"¼ tsp sea salt","qty":0.25,"unit":"tsp","item":"sea salt"},{"raw":"¼ tsp coarsely ground black pepper","qty":0.25,"unit":"tsp","item":"coarsely ground black pepper"}]}],"servings_int":4,"qc":{"status":"passed","last_checked_at":"2026-10-04T23:23:05.622771Z","checked_by":"robert@sigler.io","standard_version":"2026-09-06","findings_count":0,"stale":false,"completeness_gaps":[]}}
