1
Prep
Trim the Brussels sprouts and halve them. Cut the bacon into about 1/2-inch pieces.
2
Cook bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp and browned. Transfer to a plate, leaving 2–3 tablespoons of rendered fat in the pan.
3
Brown sprouts
Add the olive oil if the pan is dry. Place the Brussels sprouts cut side down in the bacon fat and cook until deeply browned on the cut side, about 3–5 minutes. Flip and cook until most are tender, 6–8 more minutes.
4
Glaze
Stir in the minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the honey over the sprouts and toss to coat in a glossy glaze. Add red pepper flakes if using.
5
Combine
Return the crispy bacon to the skillet. Toss everything to coat in the glaze and cook 1–2 more minutes until the glaze is thickened and sticky.
6
Finish
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed. Serve hot as a side dish.
