Print Recipe
Course Side Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 lb bacon strips See #1 below
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, washed, cut lengthwise in half See #2 below
  • 1/2 large onion, coarsely diced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce "optional"
  • 2 large cloves of garlic, minced "optional"
  • 2 tbsp Fresh sage or rosemary "optional"

Instructions
 

  • Dice the bacon and cook in a large skillet on medium-high heat, until crispy. Make sure to stir it frequently so nothing sticks or burns. The time to cook will depend on thickness, fat content.
  • Remove bacon, and let rest on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Keep the grease in the skillet, and melt the butter on high heat.
  • Cook the veg, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, approx 10 minutes.
  • Add the "optional" ingredients after 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt & pepper, add the bacon, and toss around for 1 minute.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

  1. HAHAHAHA use the full pound if your skillet has room
  2. Peel off any brown leaves, and trim the bottoms if they are discoloured.
    Cut them from top to stem.
