- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half if small, quartered if large

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line 2 baking sheets or baking dishes with parchment or foil and brush with olive oil.
- Place the Brussels sprouts on one and mushrooms on the other and toss each with salt and pepper to taste and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Roast together in the oven, or 1 sheet at a time, for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.
- The Brussels sprouts should be browned on the edges and tender.
- The mushrooms should be soft and there should be juice on the baking sheet.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together garlic, parsley and lemon zest (this is the gremolata).
- Tip mushrooms, with the juice in the baking dish, into a large bowl.
- Add Brussels sprouts and gremolata and toss together.
