Cut the brussels sprouts into quarters, adjusting the size based on their size so that they cook evenly.

Trim any rough ends and remove any bad leaves from the brussels sprouts.

Place the quartered brussels sprouts on a large Nordic Ware sheet tray.

Generously coat the brussels sprouts with olive oil, ensuring they are glistening but not swimming in oil.

Arrange the brussels sprouts on the sheet tray with the flat side facing down, placing larger pieces towards the edges and smaller ones in the center.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).

Roast the brussels sprouts in the oven for about 45 minutes, checking every 10-15 minutes to ensure they do not burn and are browning evenly.

Once roasted, sprinkle a pinch of salt and about a tablespoon of white pepper over the brussels sprouts.

Slice Fresno chilies into diagonal rounds and add them to the brussels sprouts for color and spice.

Drizzle agave syrup over the roasted brussels sprouts and mix to combine the flavors.
