Ingredients
- 4 lices thick-cut bacon, sliced into ¼-inch strips, cut into pieces or more, to taste
- 1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Butter, or to taste
- ½ cup chicken stock
- garlic salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar, or to taste
- goat cheese, or Feta cheese
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, (for an even cook use a heavy-bottomed frying pan such as a cast iron skillet) add bacon pieces and cook for 9-11 minutes or until crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Keep grease in the skillet.
- Add Brussels sprouts to the skillet, cut side down. Increase heat to medium-high heat and saute sprouts in the grease until lightly browned - about 3 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and butter and saute for 1 minute. Add chicken stock and cover the skillet. Simmer until sprouts are bright green (3-5 minutes).
- Remove lid and season with garlic salt and pepper (to taste) and continue simmering until the liquid is gone and sprouts are more tender (another 3 -5 minutes).
- Remove from skillet and toss with 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle on goat cheese or Feta cheese, and crumbled bacon.
