Hot Honey Brussels Recipe

Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half.

Cook the Bacon

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and allow it to drain on paper towels. Reserve the bacon fat in the skillet.

Sauté the Brussels Sprouts

In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add the halved Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they start to brown.

Roast in the Oven

Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes until they are tender and caramelized.

Prepare the Hot Honey Garlic Sauce

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, mince the garlic. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine hot honey and minced garlic. Stir continuously for about 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.

Combine and Serve

Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted, remove them from the oven. Crumble the cooked bacon and toss it with the Brussels sprouts and candied pecans. Drizzle the hot honey garlic sauce over the top and serve warm.
