Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Brussels sprouts
- 6 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Brussels sprouts by trimming the ends and removing any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Slice each sprout in half from top to bottom.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the sprouts evenly.
4. Place the bacon slices onto a cutting board and chop them into small bite-sized pieces.
5. Spread the Brussels sprouts onto a large baking sheet in a single layer. Scatter the chopped bacon pieces evenly over the Brussels sprouts.
6. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and the bacon is crispy and browned.
7. If desired, drizzle the roasted Brussels sprouts with balsamic vinegar for added flavor, and toss gently to coat.
8. Serve the Brussels sprouts with bacon hot as a delicious side dish to complement any meal.
