For those of us Brussels Sprouts lovers, these are excellent and easy. I got this recipe from my sister in law...I think it's from Fine Living. Great side dish.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 ounces pancetta, cut into 1/4 inch dice
1 -2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
10 ounces Brussels sprouts (about 18 medium, trimmed and halved)
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
salt

Steps:

  • In a heavy 10 inch saute pan, set over medium low heat, slowly cook pancetta in 1 tablespoons olive oil until golden and crisp all over. About 15 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to a plate lined with a paper towel, leaving fat in pan. You should have about 2 Tbsps. of fat remaining, if not add remaining 1 tablespoons oil to pan. Have ready 1/2 cup water.
  • Put the pan over medium high heat and arrange the sprouts cut side down in a single layer. Cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes. When the sprouts are browned, add water to the pan, cover immediately and simmer until the sprouts are tender. If water evaporates before sroupts are tender, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time. With a slotted spoon, transfer sprouts to a bowl. Return pan to medium high heat, and if any water remains, let it boil off.
  • Add balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper. Boil vinegar until it's reduced to about 2 Tbsps., and looks syrupy. About 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and add butter, and stir until it's melted. Return sprouts and pancetta to the pan and swirl and shake the pan until the sprouts are evenly coated. Season with salt and more pepper, and serve.

I wasn't a big fan of the pancetta.

The Brussels sprouts were a little undercooked for my liking.

I love the combination of sweet and savory in this dish. The Brussels sprouts are slightly caramelized and the pancetta adds a nice salty crunch.
