Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound thick-cut smoked bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 large sweet yellow onions, sliced
1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
5 sprigs fresh thyme, stemmed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Cut bacon into 1/4-inch thick strips (lardons).
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon lardons and cook until crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove skillet from the heat and transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve bacon drippings in the skillet.
  • Place Brussels sprouts on a sheet pan and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with some of the bacon drippings and toss to coat.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until Brussels sprouts are a little charred, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • While the Brussels sprouts are cooking, heat the skillet with the remaining bacon drippings over medium heat. Add onions and saute slowly until caramelized, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove Brussels sprouts from the oven and add to the skillet with corn and thyme. Stir until combined and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS LARDONS



Brussels Sprouts Lardons image

Copyright 2004, Barefoot in Paris. These are really very good. Update 11/28/2207: it is possible that the chicken broth may not be necessary! It could be enough with cooking them 5 minutes and browning them that they are done - pierce them to see if they are tender. Just add the raisins when browning the brussel sprouts. Update 01/20/2009: I also forgot to mention that I have made these with turkey bacon and they were just as delicious as with the other bacon!! ;)

BRUSSELS SPROUTS LARDONS



Brussels Sprouts Lardons image

It seems that most of the recipes we find that we REALLY enjoy from Food Network come from Barefoot Contessa. Here's one of her best. It made a Brussels Sprouts lover out of my Brussels Sprouts hater Auntie Bev. We eat them usually at least once a week.

Yield 6 serving(s)

3/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Tips:

  • To save time, buy pre-cooked lardons or bacon bits. If using raw bacon, cook it until crispy before adding it to the dish.
  • Brussels sprouts can be roasted, sautéed, or steamed. Roasting brings out their nutty flavor, while sautéing gives them a slightly caramelized texture. Steaming is a healthier option that preserves their nutrients.
  • To prevent the Brussels sprouts from becoming bitter, trim them properly. Cut off the brown ends and any yellow or wilted leaves.
  • Brussels sprouts pair well with a variety of flavors, including garlic, onion, shallots, bacon, nuts, and cheese. Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite recipe.
  • If you're short on time, you can make Brussels sprouts in the microwave. Simply toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and cook them for 3-4 minutes per side.

Conclusion:

Brussels sprouts are a delicious and versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you roast them, sauté them, or steam them, they're sure to be a hit. With their slightly bitter flavor and nutty texture, Brussels sprouts are a great addition to any meal. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give Brussels sprouts a try.
