Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts
- 5 slices Thick-cut bacon
- 0.5 cup Raw hazelnuts
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Honey
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Start by trimming the ends of the Brussels sprouts and removing any discolored outer leaves. Using a sharp knife or mandoline, slice them thinly into ribbons to form a chiffonade. Set aside.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, add the hazelnuts and toast them over low heat for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly golden. Remove the hazelnuts, let them cool, then roughly chop them.
Prepare the dressing by whisking together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until emulsified.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced Brussels sprouts, crumbled bacon, and chopped hazelnuts. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Transfer the chiffonade of Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and enjoy immediately as a fresh and flavorful side dish!
