1
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts
Trim the stem end of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Rinse them under cold water and then pat dry with a paper towel.
2
Cut the Brussels Sprouts
Cut each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise to ensure even cooking.

3
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
4
Sauté the Brussels Sprouts
In the same skillet with the bacon drippings, add the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the halved Brussels sprouts, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy.
5
Add the Bacon and Balsamic Glaze
Once the Brussels sprouts are crispy, add the crumbled bacon back to the skillet and drizzle the balsamic glaze over the mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

6
Plate the Dish
Transfer the crispy Brussels sprouts with bacon to a serving dish. Drizzle with additional balsamic glaze if desired and serve warm.
