My husband and I are in our 80's. We are under quarantine because of the virus. Our son has been grocery shopping for us. I told him to bring a few brussel sprouts home for us. He bought a big bag. I didn't know what to do with them. After watching your video, I know I am going to try it, as it looks good. I have gardened all my life, and like all vegetables, except brussel sprouts. They are my husband;'s favorites though, and yours looked so good, maybe I'll try them. Thank you for sharing.

Made that for lunch…. With MORE bacon because I am greedy…. ❤ great!

[kruse]

This is a winner. The crispy bacon makes the difference for me. I goes very well with lamb.

Used to love steaming chopped Brussel sprouts in a steamer basket. Then stir-fry with some chopped cocktail onions, garlic, mushrooms, throw in some chopped pepperocini and feta cheese, serve in a warm pita-pocket with some warm falafel and hummus.

I searched dozens of online recipes, but this one stood out. I have had similar preparations in trendy restaurants but this one was on another level. The only adjustment made was the addition of 3-4 tablespoons of maple syrup at the end which I think provided great balance considering the recipes addition of wine vinegar at the end. Brilliant job chef Ange. This will be my future default for brussel sprouts.

Bacon makes everything appetizing . Yummy.

[katmeowsmakeup]

Made these for my husbands family dinner a couple months ago. It was such a hit many of his family members that don’t normally eat Brussels loved it, and his grandma asked me for the recipe! Making it soon for my friends.

[jeanvignes]

Thank you, this looks lovely. I like to make my Brussels sprouts with red onion and deglaze the pan with either white wine or chicken broth. Adding in that crispy bacon, minced garlic and parsley is so appealing. Reusing the bacon fat is just how my grandmother used to cook. Bravo!

[GreyDingo]

So, trim the sprouts and slice the onions. Mind you, that's a brilliant trick with the bacon. Looks delicious.

[Sbannmarie]

Yum excited to try your version! Thanks

[originaltommy]

I love this recipe. I've been making it a long time almost exactly like this. I skip onions though and use shallots. At the end when it's still hot, I take it next level with a dash of nutmeg, a splotch of butter, then crushed walnuts and tossed with a bit of maple syrup. (Yes, I'm Canadian lol)

[elizabethvalenzuela]

He’s right up there w James at Sip & Feast. No fanfare. Just 2 cooks who love to cook.

[toddb]

I have seen many videos and now I am starting to get you...you are a simple genius! Simple recipes with genius techniques. Thanks so much for giving us a new way to cook these delish ingredients.

[lisaalbright]

Had this receipt for Thanksgiving today and what a hit. Bowl was completely wiped clean. Excellent!

[riotsquirrelz]

I had this dish at a restaurant here in Seattle a few years ago and it was so delicious I wanted to be able to make it at home. I've tried a few different recipes I found online, including the Food Network's recipe. They were all meh, your recipe blew them all out of the water!! Sooo good!! Thank you 🙏

[patriciab.]

I made this recipe for my keto diet two weeka ago and even i am not a brusel sprout fan at all, it was very tasty for real. Today I am preparing it again. Very easy to prep.

[ccsfbear]

Delicious side. I started making these years ago when diabetes made look for healthier alternatives. Highly recommended for taste and value. This can also be made in a frying pan. Thanks for bringing this tried and true favorite to us.

[jbthor]

A few years ago, I found a recipe. Maple Roasted Brussel sprouts with Bacon. I've been making it ever since. I read that this dish is served as a side dish for holidays? I absolutely love Brussel sprouts 😋😋😋👍
