I LOVE brussel sprouts but I know it’s not a big hit with most people. HOWEVER… this recipe is awesome!! Try it, you’ll like it… unless you are Brian Raynor! :)
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts, stem trimmed and quartered
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 slices local thick sliced bacon, diced, fat rendered and fat reserved
- Lemon juice, salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Directions
- Blanch sprouts in boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes, or until just tender, and put into ice water to stop the cooking process. Allow to cool in ice water for about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from ice water and dry sprouts very well.
- In a large skillet add all the bacon fat plus 2 tablespoons canola oil place over medium high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add Brussels sprouts and caramelize well on all sides, about 5 to 6 minutes or until sprouts are cooked through but still have a slight crunch.
- Remove from pan, toss with rendered bacon, season and serve.
