I HATE brussels sprouts, but got some in a organic vegetable delivery, and had to figure out an edible way to prepare them. I came up with this, and my hubby and I were fighting over the last one. Ingredients:
1 lb brussels sprout, trimmed and washed |
1/4 lb bacon, diced |
1/4 cup roasted salted pistachios, shelled |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Pre cook brussels sprouts in microwave, by steaming, or pan roasting until almost tender, depending on method and size of sprouts, 5-15 minutes. 2. Fry bacon in sauce pan until crisp. 3. Remove from pan and add brussel sprouts to bacon grease, saute for 1-2 minutes. 4. Add pistachios and balsamic vinegar. 5. Stir around for 1-2 minutes, reducing balsamic and glazing sprouts and nuts. 6. Add bacon back to pan and season with salt and pepper. |
