Modifications

 I was able to cut the Brussel sprouts with a serrated paring knife. There was less chance of slipping with the rounded Brussel sprouts than using a large chef knife.
Tossing the sprouts with my hands worked well and I didn’t lose any off of the tray or onto the floor. I made sure to have a kitchen towel in my work space that was clean and specifically for my hands. Once I got them oil free, I was able to maneuver the joystick on my chair and get over to the sink for a real hand wash.
If you are able, start peeking at them at about 25 minutes to see if they are the right amount of browned to your liking. Mine were a little too cooked when I got around to taking them out.
