Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 whole shallots, peeled
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 pound slab bacon, thinly sliced
1/2 head green cabbage, finely shredded
1/2 pound Brussels sprouts, outer layer removed, thinly sliced
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Splash of red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the shallots in a small baking dish, toss with 1 tablespoon canola oil and the sugar and season with salt and pepper. Roast, turning a few times, until golden brown and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool slightly, then thinly slice.
  • Put the bacon in a large saute pan over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the bacon is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil to the pan. Return to the stove over medium heat and heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Add the cabbage and Brussels sprouts, season with salt, pepper and the red pepper flakes, and cook until the vegetables are soft and light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and the shallots. Transfer to a platter and top with the crisp bacon.

SAUTEED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND ONIONS



Sauteed Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Onions image

This is a simple yet delicious recipe that takes little time to put together. It's a tasty way to incorporate a healthy, and often snubbed, vegetable into one's diet. I've been cooking Brussels sprouts this way for years. I'm not sure where I got the recipe. Using fresh Brussels sprouts is preferred naturally, but if not readily available, frozen Brussels sprouts may be used instead. If using frozen Brussels sprouts, you may have to drain any excess liquid that is rendered while cooking the sprouts.

  • Add the cabbage and Brussels sprouts to the skillet and cook until they are tender. Stir them occasionally to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Add the caramelized shallots to the skillet and stir to combine. This will add a sweet and savory flavor to the dish.
