Brussels Sprouts With Pancetta image

This recipe came to The Times in 2003 from Suzanne Goin, the Los Angeles restaurateur whose braised vegetables are a hallmark of her cuisine. It is a marvelously flavorful dish, rich with garlic and salty pancetta. It is one to keep.

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 pounds baby brussels sprouts, washed and trimmed (cut larger ones in two)
Salt and pepper
6 ounces pancetta in small dice (1 1/2 cups)
3 tablespoons minced shallots
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup veal stock or rich chicken broth, more if needed
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix bread crumbs and thyme with 1/4 cup olive oil, and spread on a cookie sheet. Toast, tossing frequently, until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Heat butter and remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until foamy. Add brussels sprouts, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and sauté, tossing frequently, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add diced pancetta, and sauté, tossing frequently, until sprouts are well browned and softened slightly, and pancetta is crisp, about 10 minutes more. Reduce heat, add shallots and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, 2 minutes.
  • Increase heat to high, add balsamic vinegar and stock, and cook, tossing frequently, until sprouts are glazed and tender, about 10 minutes; add more stock if needed. Taste, adjusting seasoning if necessary, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Transfer to a warm serving bowl and scatter bread crumbs on top.

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the crispy Brussels sprouts and the sweet and tangy balsamic glaze.

I've tried other Brussels sprouts recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The pancetta and balsamic vinegar give it a unique and delicious flavor.

My family loved this dish! Even my kids, who are usually not big fans of Brussels sprouts, ate them all up.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of Brussels sprouts, pancetta, and balsamic vinegar is simply delicious.

These Brussels sprouts were a hit! The pancetta added a salty, smoky flavor that perfectly complemented the slightly bitter sprouts. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
