Fried Brussels Sprouts Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon, crumble it, and set aside. Reserve the bacon drippings in the skillet.

  3. 3

    Fry the Brussels Sprouts

    Increase the heat to medium-high and add the halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet with the bacon drippings. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and honey until well combined.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    In a large bowl, toss the fried Brussels sprouts with the bacon, pickled onions, sliced Fresno chili, and peanuts. Drizzle with the mustard vinaigrette and toss to coat. Serve warm.
