Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Bacon
These brussels sprouts are perfectly crisp, tangy, sweet, and salty thanks to the addition of bacon and balsamic vinegar!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound brussels sprouts halved and trimmed
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 strips bacon
- 2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 F.
- Place the Brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Bake for 35 minutes, tossing halfway through until the sprouts are crisp.
- While the sprouts bake, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes per side, until crisp, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain the excess fat.
- Once cool, crumble the bacon and toss it with the brussels sprouts. Garnish with pomegranate seeds and serve!
