Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces thick-cut bacon
1/2 yellow onion, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces Brussels sprouts, shredded
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Hot sauce, for serving, optional

Steps:

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crispy, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool slightly. Pour off most of the bacon fat into a heat-safe bowl, leaving a thin layer of fat in the skillet.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat and cook the onions until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes; season with salt. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, another 7 to 10 minutes, adding more bacon fat if the pan seems dry. Coarsely chop the bacon and then stir it into the Brussels sprouts. Add salt and pepper to taste. Finish with the lemon juice and serve with hot sauce if desired.
