Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the Brussels sprouts on a sheet pan, including some of the loose leaves, which get crispy when they're roasted. Add the pancetta, olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, toss with your hands, and spread out in a single layer. Roast the Brussels sprouts for 20 to 30 minutes, until they're tender and nicely browned and the pancetta is cooked. Toss once during roasting. Remove from the oven, drizzle immediately with the balsamic vinegar, and toss again. Taste for seasonings, and serve hot.

Steps:
- In a heavy 10 inch saute pan, set over medium low heat, slowly cook pancetta in 1 tablespoons olive oil until golden and crisp all over. About 15 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to a plate lined with a paper towel, leaving fat in pan. You should have about 2 Tbsps. of fat remaining, if not add remaining 1 tablespoons oil to pan. Have ready 1/2 cup water.
- Put the pan over medium high heat and arrange the sprouts cut side down in a single layer. Cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes. When the sprouts are browned, add water to the pan, cover immediately and simmer until the sprouts are tender. If water evaporates before sroupts are tender, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time. With a slotted spoon, transfer sprouts to a bowl. Return pan to medium high heat, and if any water remains, let it boil off.
- Add balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper. Boil vinegar until it's reduced to about 2 Tbsps., and looks syrupy. About 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and add butter, and stir until it's melted. Return sprouts and pancetta to the pan and swirl and shake the pan until the sprouts are evenly coated. Season with salt and more pepper, and serve.

Steps:
- Set the temp on a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.

- Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and reduce by half, about 5 minutes.

Steps:
- In a large (12 inches or wider) frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes, until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a small bowl. Return the pan to medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the Brussels sprouts, keeping them in a single layer as much as possible. Having a few extra sprouts is fine, but if they are mounded in a pile, they will not brown or cook evenly. If necessary, use a larger pan, cook them in two batches, or pull out the extra for another use. Stir in the salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and well browned-even charred in spots. If the sprouts are browning too quickly, lower the heat to medium.
- Add the fig jam and the water and stir until the jam melts and coats the Brussels sprouts. Add the reserved pancetta and the pepper and stir to combine. Taste and add additional salt or pepper if needed. Serve warm.

Tips:
- Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, bright green sprouts with no signs of wilting or yellowing.
- Trim the Brussels sprouts properly: Cut off the stem end and any outer leaves that are damaged or discolored.
- Use a large skillet: This will help to prevent the Brussels sprouts from overcrowding and steaming instead of roasting.
- Roast the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the edges and give them a slightly crispy texture.
- Add the balsamic glaze and pancetta towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the glaze from burning and the pancetta from getting too crispy.
- Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately: They are best enjoyed when they are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Brussels sprouts in a balsamic glaze with pancetta is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The Brussels sprouts are roasted until tender and slightly crispy, then tossed in a flavorful balsamic glaze and topped with crispy pancetta. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
