Parmesan Brussel Sprouts Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Pickle the Red Onion

   Thinly slice the red onion and place it in a bowl. Pour the rice vinegar over the onion and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to pickle.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

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

3. 3

   Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

   Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. In the same skillet with bacon fat, add olive oil and heat over medium-high. Add the Brussels sprouts cut side down and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

4. 4

   Add Flavorings

   Add salt, pepper, and the juice of the orange to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 5 minutes until Brussels sprouts are tender but still crisp.

5. 5

   Combine Ingredients

   Remove the skillet from heat, and then mix in the crumbled bacon and Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.

6. 6

   Serve

   Plate the Brussels sprouts, top with pickled red onions and granola for added crunch. Serve warm.
