Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/4 pounds brussels sprouts, thinly sliced (8 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 pound spaghetti
4 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; remove all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet.
  • Add half of sprouts and cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and browned, about 7 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to plate with bacon. (If skillet is getting dark, add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and scrape up browned bits from bottom, leaving them in skillet.) Add 1 tablespoon oil; repeat with remaining sprouts. Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, about 2 minutes less than package instructions. Drain, reserving 1 1/4 cups pasta water.
  • Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and garlic to skillet and cook over low, stirring, until just beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Add pasta, reserved pasta water, and cheese; stir to coat, 2 minutes. Serve immediately, topped with bacon, brussels sprouts, and more cheese.

Bits of crisp bacon offset tender rigatoni and brussels sprouts in this main dish. Sauteeing the sprouts before braising them adds flavor and helps preserve their texture.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces bacon (about 7 slices), cut into 3/4-inch pieces
Up to 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
4 large shallots, cut into thin rounds
1 1/4 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved (quartered if large)
1 1/4 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
12 ounces rigatoni pasta
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh sage leaves, about 20 leaves

Steps:

  • Heat a dry large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Add enough oil to bacon fat in skillet to total 2 tablespoons. Add garlic, shallots, and sprouts; cook, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, about 3 minutes. Add stock; season with salt and pepper. Cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed and sprouts are tender, 10 to 12 minutes.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS PASTA WITH BACON AND VINEGAR



Brussels Sprouts Pasta With Bacon and Vinegar image

This recipe is endlessly adaptable: You can use pancetta or even sliced salami in place of the bacon, and chopped cabbage or torn escarole work well if you don't have sprouts. No shallots? A small red onion will do. Keep in mind different types of bacon (or other cured pork) will render different amounts of fat. When you add the brussels sprouts, if the skillet starts to look a little dry, add a tablespoon of oil to keep things moving. To achieve a nice mix of crisp leaves and tender cores, tear off some of the loose outer leaves from your brussels sprouts; they will wilt and blister while the more tightly bundled cores will soften and steam. This recipe is designed for a half pound of pasta; though you may be tempted to add extra pasta, the dish will be plenty filling with a whole pound of brussels sprouts.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and black pepper
8 thin slices of bacon
8 ounces cavatappi or other short pasta
1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed, halved and outer leaves separated
2 shallots, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
1/4 cup cider vinegar or red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons whole-grain or Dijon mustard
Shaved Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp, 5 to 8 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a plate.
  • Drop pasta into the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining bacon drippings in the skillet over medium-high. Add brussels sprouts and shallots, season with salt and pepper and cook, tossing occasionally and adding olive oil if the skillet looks dry, until the sprouts are dark brown in spots and beginning to be close to tender, 3 or 4 minutes. Add vinegar and mustard and toss to combine, scraping the bottom of the pan.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer pasta to skillet, then stir in 1 cup pasta water. Cook, tossing often, until liquid reduces and coats the pasta, 2 to 3 minutes. Crumble bacon over top and serve with Parmesan.

BACON AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BOWTIE PASTA



Bacon and Brussels Sprouts with Bowtie Pasta image

This is easy and even better? SO so so delicious. I'm happy just putting the pan in front of me for dinner. :)

Provided by Barb

Categories     All Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 strips bacon (cut in 1/2-inch-wide strips, about 1/3 lb)
1 lb Brussels sprouts (ends trimmed and halved)
8 oz bow-tie pasta
1/2 cup cream (or half-and-half)
3/4 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup shredded Asiago or Parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. While the water is heating, prep the bacon and Brussels sprouts. Cook the pasta until it is tender but still a bit firm, about 12 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking, warm a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and let it cook for 2 minutes, then add the Brussels sprouts. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and the Brussels sprouts have browned. Transfer the bacon and Brussels sprouts to a plate. Drain the grease, leaving a teaspoon or so of grease in the skillet.
  • Place the skillet back over medium-high heat. Scoop 1/2 cup of pasta water out of the boiling pasta pot and carefully pour into the hot skillet. Use a flat spatula to scrape up the brown bits and deglaze the pan. Add the cream, salt and pepper to the skillet and stir to combine. Lower the heat to medium and let the sauce simmer for 1-2 minutes, until it thickens slightly. If the pasta hasn't finished cooking yet, move the sauce off the heat until the pasta finishes.
  • Drain pasta well and add it to the skillet with the sauce, stirring to coat well. Add the Brussels sprouts and bacon to the skillet with pasta and stir to combine. Taste and adjust salt, if needed. Sprinkle with cheese before serving, if desired. Enjoy!

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON



Brussels Sprouts with Bacon image

In this recipe, the Brussels sprouts are boiled and then tossed with a bacon and vinegar sauce. This sauce is good on other vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower. Use it in the spring with spinach or in the summer with greenbeans. You can make the dish several hours ahead, but just combine the Brusseles sprouts and the sauce rather than cooking them long enough to heat the sprouts. Before serving, reheat and sprinkle with the bacon.

Tips:

  • Use fresh Brussels sprouts. Fresh Brussels sprouts are more flavorful and have a better texture than frozen or canned sprouts. If you can't find fresh Brussels sprouts, frozen sprouts are a good substitute.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts properly. To trim Brussels sprouts, cut off the stem end and remove any loose or discolored leaves. You can also halve or quarter the sprouts if you prefer smaller pieces.
  • Cook the Brussels sprouts until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite. Overcooked Brussels sprouts will be mushy and bland. To ensure that the Brussels sprouts are cooked properly, taste them as they are cooking. They should be tender on the inside but still have a slight crunch on the outside.
  • Use good quality bacon. The bacon is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use good quality bacon. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Don't crowd the pan when cooking the bacon. If you crowd the pan, the bacon will not cook evenly and will be more likely to stick to the pan. Cook the bacon in batches if necessary.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. The balsamic vinegar is another important ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality vinegar. Look for a balsamic vinegar that is aged for at least 12 years.
  • Taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or balsamic vinegar to taste.

Conclusion:

Brussels sprouts pasta with bacon and vinegar is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The Brussels sprouts are roasted until they are tender and slightly caramelized, the bacon is crispy and flavorful, and the balsamic vinegar adds a tangy sweetness to the dish. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
