Most people simply boil the tar outten them sprouts, but learned people know that steaming is better; this recipe, however, takes sprouts out of the ordinary veggie accompaniment and into a whole new territory.
Ingredients
- 2-3 cups Brussels sprouts, cut in half with yellowed leaves removed
- 1 large shallot, sliced and separated
- 2 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Combine ingredients in an oven safe casserole and mix well.
- Cook 35-40 minutes, stirring 3-4 times, until Brussels sprouts are browned all around.
- Serve hot, with an extra sprinkling of sea salt.
Variations
Using sesame oil instead of olive oil (using a lot less!) gives these a real tasty turn.
Comments
This dish goes great alongside Dijon Chicken. Instead of using a casserole dish, line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil and spread the sprout mixture over about 2/3rds of the pan and bake at 400 for 20 minutes or so, then arrange the chicken in the other 1/3rd and lower the temp to 350 and bake an additional 30 minutes.
