How to make it

  • Cut the cores from the sprouts and discard.
  • Peel off the leaves, reserving them, and discard or thinly slice the tight, innermost heads.
  • 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 ).
  • 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.
