BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND RAISINS



Brussels Sprouts With Bacon and Raisins image

My family is a huge fan of brussels sprouts. This slow cooking, stove-top method brings out the savory-sweet-salty-carmelized combination of this recipe wonderfully. Try using applewood bacon for, yet, even another layer of deliciousness. Remember to mind them well without overcooking. They should remain tender-crisp. From Epicurious.

Sauteeing Brussels sprouts with carrots and raisins lends them a slight sweetness that is irresistible.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Quick & Easy Recipes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
10 ounces brussels sprouts (about 25), stems trimmed, and thinly sliced
2 carrots, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup golden raisins
1 cup low-sodium canned chicken broth

If the skillet becomes too dry before sprouts are tender, add up to 3 tablespoons water, and continue cooking. Remove from heat, and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for firm, deep green sprouts with tightly closed leaves.
  • Trim the sprouts: Cut off the stem end and any damaged or discolored leaves.

  • Cook the bacon until crispy: Cook the bacon over medium heat until it is crispy and browned.
  • Add the sprouts and cook until tender: Add the Brussels sprouts to the pan with the bacon and cook until they are tender and slightly browned.
  • Add the raisins and nuts: Stir in the raisins, nuts, and any other desired ingredients.
