Shredded Brussels Sprouts With Bacon and Onions image

I love Brussels sprouts and think they have an undeserved bad reputation with so many because they are often overcooked. (Cooking Brussels sprouts releases sulfur compounds; when overcooked, they develop an unpleasant sulfurous flavor and smell.) In this recipe, adapted from Eating Well (October/November 2006), a small amount of bacon goes a long way to impart its wonderful, smoky flavor to the sprouts.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 slices bacon
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 lb Brussels sprout, trimmed, halved and very thinly sliced
1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp (5 to 7 minutes); drain on paper towels, then crumble.
  • Add onion and salt to the drippings in the pan and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until tender and browned (about 3 minutes).
  • Add water and mustard, scraping up any browned bits, then add Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring often, until tender (4 to 6 minutes).
  • Stir in vinegar and top with the crumbled bacon.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy side dish. I always have Brussels sprouts on hand, so it's nice to have a new way to prepare them.

This recipe was a disaster. The Brussels sprouts were mushy and the bacon was overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Solid recipe. The Brussels sprouts were a bit too crunchy for my liking, but overall it was a tasty dish.
