Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Butternut Squash and Bacon with Maple Soy Glaze
Description
Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Butternut Squash and Bacon with Maple Soy Glaze features vegetables tossed separately with olive oil, kosher salt, and freshly ground pepper, then roasted together on a sheet pan topped with chopped bacon. The roasting time totals approximately 35 minutes, allowing the Brussels sprouts to become tender and crisp around the edges, the butternut squash to soften, and the bacon to render its fat and crisp up.
The glaze is prepared by gently simmering pure maple syrup and reduced-sodium soy sauce until slightly thickened, which brings sweet and umami notes. After roasting, the glaze is drizzled over the vegetables and bacon and tossed to coat evenly, adding a glossy finish and complementary flavor depth.
This dish can be served alongside roasted meats or as a flavorful autumn vegetable side. The mixture of textures—including the soft butternut squash, crisp-tender Brussels sprouts, and crispy bacon—makes it appealing for varied palates and meal occasions.
