Bacon-Wrapped Brussels Sprouts with Creamy Lemon Dip image

Most recipes for bacon-wrapped Brussels sprouts call for holding everything together with toothpicks, but we skip that step. Setting the bacon seam-side down on the baking sheet makes it seal in the hot oven. The maple syrup glaze helps to make each bite sweet and caramelized.

Categories     appetizer

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

18 medium Brussels sprouts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 12-ounce package center-cut bacon (about 18 strips)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup, plus 1/2 cup more for serving
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Zest of 1/2 lemon, plus 2 teaspoons juice
Crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Trim the stem ends from the Brussels sprouts, and halve lengthwise. Put them in a medium bowl, and toss with 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Lay the bacon strips next to each other on a work surface. Brush liberally with about 1/2 the maple syrup, then halve crosswise. Wrap each Brussels sprout half with 1 strip of bacon, syrup-side out, so the seam is on the flat side. Place the sprouts seam-side down on the parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between them. Brush them with a bit more syrup, and grind a little black pepper on top. Roast, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until the bacon is crisp and the sprouts are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise, most of the lemon zest and all the lemon juice in a small serving dish. Sprinkle the remaining lemon zest on top. Put about 1/2 cup maple syrup in a second small serving dish, and stir in as much black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes as you like.
  • Transfer the sprouts to a platter, and serve with the lemon mayonnaise and peppered maple syrup, for dipping.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Quick & Easy Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
Zest and juice of 1 lemon, plus 1 lemon, quartered
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 pound brussels sprouts

Steps:

  • Place butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a heavy bowl, with lemon zest and juice, dill, garlic, salt, and pepper. Beat until well combined. Transfer herbed butter to a piece of parchment or wax paper, and roll into a cylinder, twisting both ends to secure. Place in refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Place a saucepan with steamer insert and 1 1/2 inches water over medium-high heat. Trim sprouts of outer leaves, and cut a small X in each base with a paring knife. When water in steamer is boiling, add sprouts and lemon quarters. Cook until sprouts are tender and bright green, tossing occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  • When sprouts are done, discard lemon, and transfer to serving bowl. Cut disks of herbed butter, and toss with sprouts. Serve sprinkled with fresh dill.

Tips:

  • Choose the right Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, bright green sprouts with tightly closed leaves. Avoid any sprouts that have yellow or brown spots or leaves that are starting to wilt.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts properly: Cut off the stem end of each sprout and remove any damaged or discolored leaves.
  • Cook the Brussels sprouts until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite: Overcooked Brussels sprouts will be mushy and bland, so be careful not to overcook them.
  • Use a variety of cooking methods: Brussels sprouts can be roasted, sautéed, grilled, or steamed. Each cooking method will give the sprouts a different flavor and texture, so experiment until you find your favorite way to cook them.
  • Add flavor with seasonings and sauces: Brussels sprouts can be seasoned with a variety of spices, herbs, and sauces. Some popular options include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. You can also try adding bacon, cheese, or nuts for extra flavor.
  • Serve Brussels sprouts as a side dish or main course: Brussels sprouts can be served as a side dish with roasted chicken, grilled fish, or steak. They can also be used as a main course in a vegetarian or vegan meal.

Conclusion:

Brussels sprouts are a delicious and versatile vegetable that can be cooked in a variety of ways. With their slightly bitter flavor and nutty texture, Brussels sprouts are a great addition to any meal. Whether you roast them, sauté them, grill them, or steam them, Brussels sprouts are sure to please everyone at the table.
