Oven Roasted Brussels Sprouts with bacon
Ingredients: 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil Juice of one lemon 5 strips bacon, cooked to crispy and crumbled (or use Pecorino Romano) 1 tsp lemon zest Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions: To prepare, soak Brussels sprouts in a bowl of cold, salted water for 20 minutes to remove any cabbage-loving little caterpillars. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place Brussels sprouts in a large bowl and toss with olive oil and lemon juice. Arrange sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes (turning once or twice), or until , until lightly browned and crisp outside and tender inside-you'll note that leaves that are loose will be especially brown and crispy-this is ideal.. Return Brussels sprouts to bowl, stir in bacon, lemon zest and additional lemon juice if desired. Salt and pepper to taste. Serves 4 to 5.
