Delicious recipe for seared Brussels sprouts with bacon.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1lb 10 oz (750g) Brussels sprouts
- 3.5oz (100g) Bacon
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ¾ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp tallow Optional. Add if not enough fat from bacon (see note, or olive oil
Instructions
- Rinse and clean the Brussels sprouts and remove any wilted and yellowing leaves. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Slice the bacon into thin strips or whatever shapes/sizes you want. TIP: Freeze your bacon before cutting. It’s much easier to cut it that way into thin strips and no defrosting required.
- Using a cast iron skillet, fry the bacon until desired consistency. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to remove extra fat from the bacon.
- Place the Brussels sprouts onto the cast iron skillet cut side down. Once there is a good sear, flip them or stir so that they get browned from the other sides. If your skillet doesn't fit all the sprouts at once, do this in batches adding the finished Brussels sprouts back into the skillet at the end.
- Add the bacon back into the skillet. Then add ½ tsp salt and 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar. Mix well together and remove from heat.
- Once the Brussels sprouts have cooled down for a minute, add the rest of the apple cider vinegar and salt (if needed and to taste). Mix well.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Since all bacon is made differently, you might have a lot or little fat after frying it. If there is not enough fat, you won't get a good sear. Add tallow or olive oil or fat of choice a tablespoon at a time if needed.
