Brussels Sprouts Green Beans And Maple Bacon Food

CHARRED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND MAPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cook the bacon in a large cast-iron pan in the oven or on the stovetop until browned and crisp and the fat has rendered out, about 10 minutes. Set the bacon aside on a cutting board to let cool. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
• Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer in concentric circles, cut-side down, in the bacon fat in the pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until the sprouts begin to caramelize, about 4 minutes . When they begin to brown, transfer the pan to the oven and roast until charred and tender, about 15 minutes.
• Return the pan to medium heat. Transfer the sprouts to a bowl, leaving some fat behind. Add the shallots and cumin to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the shallots soften and the cumin smells fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the maple syrup, mustard and salt and pepper to taste, and whisk until bubbly. Add the sprouts to the sauce and remove the pan from the heat. Add the chives and stir to coat the sprouts in the sauce. Transfer to a serving plate.
• Chop the bacon and sprinkle on top.

MAPLE BACON BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. For easy clean up, line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place the Brussels sprouts in the center. (If you prefer not to use foil, cook the Brussels sprouts directly on the pan or use a silicone baking mat.)
• Cut the bacon crosswise into ¼-inch pieces. Place them on top of the Brussels sprouts. Drizzle the pan with the olive oil and maple syrup and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Gently mix until the Brussels sprouts are evenly coated, then spread them into a single layer on the baking sheet, breaking apart the bacon and scattering it evenly throughout. For even better crisping, flip the Brussels sprouts so that they are all cut side down.
• Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are lightly charred and crisp on the outside and tender in the center and the bacon is crisp. The outer leaves of the Brussels sprouts will be very dark too (this is the caramelized maple syrup; they taste amazing). Watch carefully towards the end of the baking time, as the cooking time will vary based on the size of your sprouts. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as desired. Enjoy hot.

• Meanwhile, put the oil and bacon in a very large skillet or stewpot, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring occasionally, until they brown and the edges get crisp, about 10 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, salt, pepper, and bacon.
