Notes
- The cooking time indicated includes the time to cook the bacon. I cooked the bacon in the oven on a rimmed baking sheet at 400° for 15 minutes.
- To shred brussels sprouts, I use my food processor, but you can also use a mandoline, or do it by hand.
- To shave the brussels sprouts by hand, use a sharp knife to cut off the stem end. Slice the sprout in half, and with cut side down, cut each half into thin slices.
- You can cook the bacon in the same skillet first. Chop the bacon first, then cook until crisp. Drain all but a tablespoon of the fat from the skillet before adding the rest of the ingredients. If you use this method, omit the olive oil.
- If your bacon is quite salty, omit the salt.
