Ingredients
- 1/2 tablespoon of Kosher salt enhancing the flavors of the Brussels sprouts and bringing out their natural sweetness while balancing the other seasonings.
- 1/2 tablespoon of fresh thyme infusing an aromatic and earthy essence that complements the Brussels sprouts and adds depth to the dish.
- 1 tablespoon of Extra virgin olive oil adding a smooth and fruity richness that coats the Brussels sprouts, enhancing their natural flavors and promoting caramelization during cooking.
- 1 1/4 lbs Brussels sprouts providing compact and vibrant green cruciferous vegetables that offer a delightful crunch and a mildly bitter taste, perfect for roasting or sautéing.
- 3 strips of Cooked bacon providing a smoky and savory flavor that adds richness, depth, and a crispy texture to the dish, complementing the Brussels sprouts perfectly. The bacon brings a delightful indulgence to the overall flavor.
- 1/8 tablespoon of Freshly cracked black pepper providing a subtle and warm spiciness that adds a hint of complexity and depth to the dish.
- 1 tablespoon of Lemon or lime juice offering a bright and tangy acidity that cuts through the richness of the Brussels sprouts, adding a refreshing zing.
Instructions
- To prepare Brussels sprouts, first remove any wilted leaves and give them a thorough rinse. Trim off the ends of each sprout, then halve lengthwise.
- Heat a pan to medium-high. Pour in 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and spread it across the surface evenly. Add the cut Brussels sprouts with the cut side facing down and cook for 4 minutes without stirring.
- Once the Brussels sprouts are golden and browned, flip them over with a spatula and continue cooking for an additional 4 minutes before reducing the heat to low. Sprinkle in 1.5 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves, 1 tablespoon of kosher salt, and ¼ tablespoon of freshly ground black pepper. Stir until everything is well-combined.
- Cook for 3-4 more minutes or until Brussels sprouts are fork tender. Turn off the heat and squeeze in 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon or lime juice, stirring to combine. Finally, top with 8 slices of crumbled cooked bacon before serving and enjoy!
Notes
- Add a kick of spice by adding some red chili flakes when cooking the Brussels sprouts.
- For a smoky flavor, add in some smoked paprika when cooking the Brussels sprouts.
- Serve your Brussels sprouts as a side dish to grilled chicken or steak for a complete meal.
