In a large bowl whisk to combine the orange juice, orange zest, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Add the brussels sprouts and toss to coat thoroughly. Pour them onto a baking sheet with edges and roast in a preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until tender. Toss the baking sheet occasionally to brown evenly and avoid burning.
