Author: NecessaryIndulgences.com
- ~24 Brussels Sprouts
- 4-5 strips of bacon, chopped
- Salt
- 2 TBS Mustard
- 2 TBS Honey
- 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
- Bacon grease
- Parmesan cheese
- Fry the bacon.
- When the bacon is cooked, remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel.
- Wash and dry the Brussels Sprouts.
- Cut the stem from each one and then cut in half lengthwise.
- Remove all but 2-3 Tablespoons of the bacon grease from the pan and save the rest for later.
- Arrange the Brussels sprouts cut side down in the pan.
- Once caramelized, turn the Brussels sprouts over.
- Add a dash of salt.
- While the other side is getting nice and caramelized, make the mustard dressing.
- Whisk together the mustard, honey, and apple cider vinegar.
- Slowly drizzle in some of the bacon grease. Whisk until it becomes a slightly creamy dressing.
- Taste and add more of what it needs. I added a tad more honey.
- When the Brussels sprouts are caramelized on both sides, add the bacon pieces and mustard dressing. Gently stir everything together.
- Turn off the heat and finish the dish with a large handful of Parmesan cheese.
