Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Brussels Sprouts

    Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 2

    Cook Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels to drain.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté Brussels Sprouts

    In the same skillet with the bacon drippings, add the halved Brussels sprouts cut side down. Cook for about 5 minutes until browned, then stir and cook for an additional 5 minutes until tender.

  2. 4

    Add Ingredients

    Once the Brussels sprouts are tender, add the crispy bacon, golden raisins, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  3. 5

    Finish with Balsamic Glaze

    Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the Brussels sprouts and toss to coat evenly. Allow to cook for another minute to warm through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the crispy Brussels sprouts to a serving platter and enjoy warm.
