I love brussels sprouts!

I never thought I would ever say this but yes, I am addicted to brussels sprouts!
Here is a recipe my husband found online.

Sauteed Brussels sprouts with Bacon & Hard Apple Cider

3 strips bacon, cut crosswise into ½” strips

2 Tbsp. butter

1 ½ lbs. Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

2 large shallots, roughly chopped (I used 1/2 of a sweet onion but next time I'll try a red onion)

1 cup hard apple cider

1 tsp. honey

1 tsp. kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

 

Heat a large frying pan on medium-high. Add bacon and cook, stirring here and there, until brown and crisp. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

 

Pour all but 1 Tbsp. bacon fat into a heat-proof jar and reserve for another use. Add butter to skillet. When the butter has melted, add the sprouts. Cook for about 5 minutes, gently shaking the skillet from time to time.

 

Stir in the shallots and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the cider, honey, salt and pepper, gently mix, and bring to a boil.

 

Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the sprouts are tender and the liquid has almost evaporated, 5-7 minutes. If the sprouts need more cooking time, add more cider.

 

Toss with bacon and serve immediately.
