Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 lbs brussels sprouts
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 shallot, minced
1/2 lb chestnuts, peeled and coarse chopped
1 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp sherry wine vinegar
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Cut an X on the bottom of each stem end of the Brussels sprouts and peel away any leaves that are discolored or loose.
Steam the Brussels sprouts in a covered pot, over rapidly boiling water, until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Quarter each sprout lengthwise and set aside.
In a dry skillet, over medium heat, render the fat from the bacon, about 5 minutes; add the minced shallot and cook 1 minute.
Add the chestnuts and chicken broth, cover, and simmer until chestnuts are tender and sweet, about 10 minutes.
Add vinegar, Brussels sprouts, and cook about 5 minutes; season to taste with salt and pepper and a little more vinegar, if needed.
