1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

3. In a large bowl, combine the Brussels sprouts with vegetable oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
4. Spread the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown, stirring halfway through.
