Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 slices Bacon chopped
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
  • cooking spray

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
  2. Place the brussels sprouts in a single layer on the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Scatter the bacon pieces around the pan.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes or until bacon is crispy and sprouts are browned. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the sprouts. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Notes

  • I recommend using fresh brussels sprouts in this dish, as frozen sprouts will be overly soft in the finished product.
  • Balsamic glaze is a thick and syrupy version of balsamic vinegar. You can buy it in the vinegar or salad dressing area of most grocery stores, or you can make your own by simmering 1 cup of balsamic vinegar over low heat until it's reduced by half and thickened.
  • I like to finish my sprouts with a sprinkle of fresh parsley. If you don't have parsley on hand, you can also use chives or basil.
