Brussels Sprouts With Pancetta image

This recipe came to The Times in 2003 from Suzanne Goin, the Los Angeles restaurateur whose braised vegetables are a hallmark of her cuisine. It is a marvelously flavorful dish, rich with garlic and salty pancetta. It is one to keep.

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 pounds baby brussels sprouts, washed and trimmed (cut larger ones in two)
Salt and pepper
6 ounces pancetta in small dice (1 1/2 cups)
3 tablespoons minced shallots
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup veal stock or rich chicken broth, more if needed
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix bread crumbs and thyme with 1/4 cup olive oil, and spread on a cookie sheet. Toast, tossing frequently, until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Heat butter and remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until foamy. Add brussels sprouts, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and sauté, tossing frequently, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add diced pancetta, and sauté, tossing frequently, until sprouts are well browned and softened slightly, and pancetta is crisp, about 10 minutes more. Reduce heat, add shallots and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, 2 minutes.
  • Increase heat to high, add balsamic vinegar and stock, and cook, tossing frequently, until sprouts are glazed and tender, about 10 minutes; add more stock if needed. Taste, adjusting seasoning if necessary, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Transfer to a warm serving bowl and scatter bread crumbs on top.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

This was my first time cooking Brussels sprouts and I'm so glad I tried this recipe. It was so easy to follow and the sprouts turned out perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of Brussels sprouts, but I actually really enjoyed this dish. The pancetta and the balsamic vinegar really helped to balance out the flavor of the sprouts.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. The Brussels sprouts are always perfectly roasted and the pancetta adds a wonderful flavor.

Not bad, but not great either. The Brussels sprouts were a bit too charred for my taste.

Delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. Even my kids, who don't usually like Brussels sprouts, loved this dish.

Easy to make and very tasty. I used pre-cooked pancetta and it worked out great. Will make again!
