Roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon and garlic are a simple fall side dish. Roasting turns the sprouts golden and gives them a milder flavor than boiling. The halved sprouts roast with olive oil, with smoked bacon and garlic added halfway through cooking.

A drizzle of lemon juice finishes the dish. Serve with roasted meat, such as duck legs, or enjoy as a light dinner.

Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Prepare the Brussels sprouts

    Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F). Remove any damaged outer leaves from the sprouts, trim the dry stem ends, and cut the sprouts in half.

  2. Season

    Toss the sprouts with the olive oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange in a single layer in a baking dish, cut sides down.

  3. Roast

    Roast for 15 minutes, until the cut sides begin to brown.

  4. Add the bacon and garlic

    Dice the bacon and slice the garlic. Scatter them between the sprouts and roast for another 10 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the sprouts are tender with golden-brown edges.

  5. Finish and serve

    Drizzle the sprouts with the lemon juice, toss, and serve immediately.

Tip: If the sprouts vary greatly in size, leave the small ones whole and quarter the large ones so they cook evenly and none remain hard.
