Brussels Sprouts with Bacon: Food Network

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate, then roughly chop. In same pan with bacon fat, melt butter over high heat. Add onions and Brussels Sprouts and cook, stirring occasionally, until sprouts are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss bacon back into pan. Serve immediately.

Super easy, especially if you grab a steamer bag of pre-washed and cut spouts, cuts prep in half. Swap olive oil for the butter for a lighter take. Swap diced pancetta or Applewood smoked thick cut bacon for more flavor. Cast iron skillet gets some  crispy and browned. Even haters ain't hate this one! Delicious.

Undercooked.  Flash steamed these and allowed to cool completely THEN proceeded as described and it worked MUCH better.  

Was very good - I did not have to add the butter, the grease from the bacon was more than enough to cook the sprouts.  They remained very green looking and tasty!

Big hit... But for a twist instead of chopped onions try slicing two large onions and caramelize on low to med heat for 35 - 40 minutes (sprinkle 1 tsp. of sugar to start caramelizing process). Add Sprouts, Bacon, 2 tbls. of minced garlic, Balsamic Glaze and sliced mushrooms (if desired).. Cover and cook for 10 - 15 more minutes stirring a couple of times... Yummmm

This is a main dish item at our house! So quick and easy to make and tastes fabulous. I serve it with jalapeno aioli and sit back and wait for the rave reviews.

I added garlic and Italian Seasonings to really make this POP!  Great dish and a great stand alone meal. Caution---go light on the salt as the bacon has salt and you don't want to overdo it!

So much better than what my mom did as a kid.  Mom use to get frozen brussel sprouts and boil them til they were mush.<br /><br />These were firmer and didn't taste like medicine.  I think the bacon and the grease really made this good.<br />

This recipe is perfect as is but the wanna be chef in me added some shredded parmesan cheese on top (just a little). Amazing!

Great side dish. Substituted slice salami for the bacon. Sounds odd but we were out of bacon. 

This recipe is really heavy on the palate. With butter added to the bacon fat its overwhelmingly rich. I should have cut it with some lemon juice to brighten it up.
