Brussels Sprouts with Oranges and Bacon image

Small thin-skinned oranges work best here. Look for organic, as you are going to want to eat the whole fruit. The combination of sweet orange, lightly smoky bacon, and caramelized brussels sprouts is absolutely addictive.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
2 small oranges, cut in half, then into 1/2-inch slices
Kosher salt
3 to 4 strips thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (1 cup)
1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Brush a rimmed baking sheet generously with oil. Add oranges, in a single layer, turning to coat. Season with salt and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil; roast 15 minutes. Add bacon and roast until crisp, about 12 minutes.
  • Toss brussels sprouts with remaining 4 tablespoons oil; season with salt. Add to baking sheet; toss to combine. Roast, tossing once, until sprouts are tender and browning at edges and oranges are deeply caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes more.
