Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Bacon
A timeless recipe for any side dish! Even great leftover on salad with a balsamic dressing!
Equipment
- Kitchen knife
- Mixing bowl
- Baking sheet or pan
Ingredients
- 10-12 large Brussel Sprouts, trimmed and cleaned
- 3 slices Thick Cut Bacon
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
- 3 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
- Salt and Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400. Taking brussel sprouts, cut in either halves or fourths, depending on the size of the head. You want these to all be fairly uniform in size.. Add to mixing bowl.
- Slice bacon into smaller pieces, about 1/4" wide and add to mixing bowl, making sure pieces are separated.
- Add in minced garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil and toss well. Spread over sheet and place in the oven to roast.
- Check frequently and toss throughout to make sure there is an even cooking. I prefer to wait until there is a char on the brussel sprouts and the bacon is a bit crispy.
- Remove from oven and place on a serving dish, topping with parmesan cheese. Enjoy!If you would prefer a vegetarian option, simply omit the bacon and add more cheese on top. Also great to substitute a favorite nut for the last few minutes to provide that crunch!
