Categories     Vegetable

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds fresh Brussels sprouts, outer leaf layers removed, sprout ends sliced off, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 pound slab of bacon cut into 1/4-inch dice
3/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Topping
Ingredients
1½ cup fresh breadcrumbs or 1 cup dried breadcrumbs
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons minced fresh sage (parsley or chives can be substituted)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and place rack on highest level. Toss Brussels sprouts with melted butter, bacon, salt and pepper. Arrange in a shallow baking dish just large enough for a generous single layer with a little overlap (sprouts will shrink some during cooking). Roast for 25 minutes, stirring two or three times during cooking. 2. While sprouts are roasting, in a medium bowl mix together all of the topping ingredients. Set aside. 3. When spouts are ready, toss with cream. Arrange sprouts back in a single layer. Sprinkle the topping evenly over all. Return to oven and roast until gratin is bubbling and breadcrumbs are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving.

Overall, this dish was a success! The Brussels sprouts were tender and flavorful, and the bacon added a nice smoky flavor. The cheese sauce was also very cheesy and delicious.

This dish was so good! The Brussels sprouts were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the bacon was perfectly cooked. The cheese sauce was also very flavorful.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I think I would have preferred a simpler recipe.

The Brussels sprouts in this recipe were a little bland. I think I would have preferred them roasted instead of steamed.

This dish was a little too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it.
