Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup diced pancetta
1 pound peeled Brussels sprouts, quartered
1 tablespoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
Salt and coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the oil. Add pancetta and cook until slightly crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the Brussels sprouts and toss with the oil and pancetta to coat evenly. Add the thyme and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bake in the oven until nicely caramelized, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve.

i've developed a taste for brussels sprouts lately. we never had them growing up but my taste have matured. my husband does... not like them. he does, however, like bacon. i found these to be super yummy! the sprouts were tender but not over cooked. my husband told me i could make these now and then. does he love brussels sprouts now? no! but he'll eat them, and that works for me!Read more

After I watched the show..I had to get some brussel sprouts (already one of my favorite fresh veggies). I did alter the... recipe a bit...I used regular bacon because I had some on hand and then just before serving tossed in a few tablespoons of apricot preserves.......magic and magnificent...never enjoyed them more...will make over and over and over again...will try other additions as well...but honestly don't need to!Read more

Awesome
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

With Brussel Sprout in season right this was a great dish. Everyone raved and had seconds. It was so easy to do. I served... with ham and when it came out of the oven they went in. It made for a very smooth transition. The ginger in the whipped cream was a great idea too on Ginger Bread!Read more
