Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

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

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and let it drain on paper towels. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat in the skillet.

  3. 3

    Sauté Shallots

    Add the sliced shallots to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they are soft and translucent.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Fry the Brussels Sprouts

    Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet with the sautéed shallots. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are crispy and golden brown.

  2. 5

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  3. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Crumble the cooked bacon over the Brussels sprouts and drizzle with the vinaigrette. Toss to coat. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
