This Brussels sprouts and bacon recipe is a super delicious 2-ingredient side dish that the whole family will love. It's easy and fast!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bacon (cut into small pieces)
  • 2 dozen Brussels sprouts (trimmed & halved)
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)

Directions

  1. 1

    Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy.

  2. 2

    Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate, and leave the grease in the pan.

  3. 3

    Add the Brussels sprouts to the pan, stir them until they're nicely coated in the bacon grease, and cover the pan with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 5 minutes. 

  4. 4

    Add the bacon back into the pan. Cook, uncovered, for a few more minutes or until the Brussels sprouts are as tender and/or browned as you want. You can cover the pan again if you wish (especially if you want the Brussels to be super soft); just keep an eye on them so they don't scorch.

  5. 5

    Season with salt & pepper if needed. Serve immediately.
