食材

Ingredients • 2 Ibs brussels sprouts washed & halved lengthwise • 1 tbsp olive oil added to the baking tray • 1 pack bacon / used a 340 gram pack - uncooked, + 2 tbsp of reserved fat • 2 tbsp maple syrup • 1 tbsp balsamic glaze • 3 garlic cloves minced • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika • 1/2 tsp salt or more to taste • 1/4 tsp black pepper

步驟

Instructions

1. Cook the bacon and reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat. Chop the bacon into small strips, then set aside until ready to use.

2. Lightly coat the bottom of a baking sheet with about 1 tablespoon of olive oil (or generously brush oil directly onto the pan).

3. Preheat your oven to 425 °F then add the baking tray to the oven while it preheats - this step ensures the pan is hot when the sprouts are added, ensuring they become crispy.

4. Trim the tough ends off the brussels sprouts (if required) then cut them in half lengthwise. Loose leaves are fine - they will crisp up nicely in the oven.

5. To a large mixing bowl add the, sprouts, bacon fat, maple syrup, garlic, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Gently toss to combine.

6. Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven. Immediately pour the sprouts onto the pan, then arrange them cut-side down in a single layer.

7. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until cooked to your preference.

8. Remove from the oven, add to a serving bowl, along with the chopped bacon and an extra drizzle of maple syrup (if you want them sweeter) or a drizzle of balsamic glaze.

9. Serve right away.
