Ingredients
-
2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
-
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
-
¾ teaspoon salt, divided
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
-
⅓ cup quince paste (membrillo)
-
⅓ cup water
-
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
-
1 tablespoon lemon juice
-
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
-
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
-
4 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint or basil, divided
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400°F. Set a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven to preheat for 5 minutes.
-
Toss Brussels sprouts with oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Arrange the Brussels sprouts, cut-side down, on the preheated baking sheet. Roast until browned and tender, stirring once halfway through, 20 to 25 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, combine quince paste, water, sugar, lemon juice and crushed red pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring to melt the quince paste. Cook until syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in paprika and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
-
Transfer the roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving bowl and toss with the quince glaze and 2 tablespoons mint (or basil). Serve topped with lemon zest and the remaining 2 tablespoons mint (or basil).
Tips
To make ahead: Refrigerate sauce (Step 3) for up to 1 week. Reheat before using, adding a few tablespoons of water to thin it if necessary.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
