Ingredients
- 10 Brussel sprouts
- 2 tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt ((for boiling Brussel sprouts))
- 2 -3 tsp extra virgin olive oil ((you can skip if the bacon has a lot of fat))
- 2 slices applewood smoked bacon ((cut into ½ inch (1.3 cm) slices))
- 2 -3 strings thymes
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- ⅛ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Steps
-
Gather all the ingredients. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 2 tsp salt.
-
Trim the bottom of Brussel sprouts, leaving the core intact, and cut in half.
-
When the water boils, add the Brussel sprouts and cook uncovered for 6 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain in a colander and set aside.
-
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat and cook bacon, stirring occasionally, until it gets crispy. Then remove the bacon to a plate, leaving the bacon oil in the pan.
-
Heat the pan on medium-high heat. Add Brussel sprouts and thyme in the same pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until they are golden brown.
-
Stir in the apple cider vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Put the bacon back in the pan to toss it all together and serve warm.
-
You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
