Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 slices bacon, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon, thinly sliced
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 lemon, juiced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
8 small red potatoes, quartered
4 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned but still soft, about 5 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Coat a large baking dish or cast iron skillet with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Arrange lemon slices in a single layer on the bottom of the baking dish.
  • Stir remaining 5 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl.
  • Toss Brussels sprouts in lemon juice mixture to coat; transfer to the prepared baking dish with a slotted spoon, draining excess liquid back into the bowl.
  • Place bacon on top of the Brussels sprouts.
  • Toss potatoes in the same lemon juice mixture used for the Brussels sprouts.
  • Remove potatoes with slotted spoon and arrange along the inside edge of the baking dish.
  • Coat chicken breast halves thoroughly in the remaining lemon mixture.
  • Place chicken breasts skin-side up in the skillet; pour any remaining lemon juice mixture over chicken.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Categories     Lemon

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
3/4 lb Brussels sprout, trimmed, leaves pulled off, cores quartered
1/8 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/8 sea salt (optional)
1 teaspoon lemon zest, minced (a generous teaspoon)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over a medium setting, heat the oil, then add garlic & cook about 30 seconds, or until fragrant, then reduce heat to low & add Brussels sprout leaves & cores.
  • Cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, or until Brussels sprouts soften & just start to brown.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water, then cover & cook another 5 minutes or until cores are tender.
  • Season with lemon pepper, (salt, if using) & the lemon zest., before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh Brussels sprouts: Look for bright green sprouts that are firm and tightly closed. Avoid any sprouts that are yellowed or have brown spots.
  • Trim the Brussels sprouts: Cut off the brown or woody ends of the sprouts and remove any yellow or wilted outer leaves.
  • Slice the Brussels sprouts: For smaller sprouts, you can slice them in half. For larger sprouts, cut them into quarters or even smaller pieces.
  • Use a combination of cooking methods: Roasting, sautéing, and steaming are all great ways to cook Brussels sprouts. Roasting brings out their natural sweetness, while sautéing gives them a slightly crispy texture. Steaming preserves their nutrients and bright green color.
  • Season the Brussels sprouts well: Salt, pepper, garlic, and lemon zest are all classic seasonings that go well with Brussels sprouts. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the Brussels sprouts: Overcooked Brussels sprouts can become mushy and lose their flavor. Aim to cook them until they are tender but still have a slight crunch.

Conclusion:

With their sweet and slightly nutty flavor, Brussels sprouts are a versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you roast them, sauté them, or steam them, Brussels sprouts are a healthy and delicious addition to any meal. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook Brussels sprouts, give one of these recipes a try!
