Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

ingredients
2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced or quartered
1 tablespoon oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste
4 slices double smoked bacon (omit for vegetarian)
1/4 cup parmigiano reggiano (parmesan), grated
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Steps:

directions Toss the brussels sprouts in the oil along with the garlic, salt and pepper, place in in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated 400F oven until lightly golden brown, about 20 minutes, mixing them up half way through. Meanwhile cook the bacon until crispy and drain on paper towels before crumbling. Sprinkle on the parmesan and return to the oven until it melts, about 1-2 minutes. Toss the brussels sprouts with the bacon and lemon zest, and lemon juice and enjoy! Tip: Slice the brussels sprouts with the slicing blade in a food processor rather than slicing by hand with a knife. Tip: Trim and slice the brussels sprouts a day or two ahead of time and store, covered, in the fridge. Tip: Make a few hours ahead and rewarm in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
