This is a Laura Calder recipe, the only modification I have made is to squeeze 1/2 lemon over the sprouts when finished. It is absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

Directions
  1. Cut the cores from the sprouts and discard.
  2. Peel off the leaves, reserving them, and discard or thinly slice the tight, innermost heads.
  3. Heat a sauté pan and fry the bacon until crisp; remove to paper towel to drain. Pour all but a tablespoon of fat from the pan ( I left it all in ).
  4. Add the butter, to melt. Toss the leaves in, and sauté until tender, 5 t 10 minutes. Season, crumble over the bacon, and Sqeeze the Lemon over top and serve.

Sounds perfectly delicious Glenn. I'm a Brussels Sprouts lover. My husband is not...but he loves bacon. This will entice him. You've got my five.
