Ingredients
- 3slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips
- 1/2medium onion, coarsely chopped
- 3cloves garlic, minced
- 1tablespoon olive oil
- 2pounds Brussels sprouts, bottoms trimmed and halved lengthwise
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
-
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400.
-
In a large ovenproof skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, for 2 to 3 minutes, until it begins to crisp. Decrease the heat to medium, add the onion, and sauté for about 3 minutes, or until translucent. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring occasionally for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
-
Add the olive oil and Brussels sprouts and stir gently to coat the sprouts with the oil. Season with salt and pepper. (Go easy on the salt; the bacon will already have added to the saltiness. You can adjust the seasoning after the Brussels sprouts have cooked.)
-
Place the pan in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the sprouts are golden brown and can be easily pierced with a fork.
-
Transfer to a serving bowl and serve right away.
