JT's Bacon Brussels Sprout Delight

This recipe is so delicious. Even if you don't eat or enjoy brussel sprouts, just give this recipe a try, it will certainly change your mind. If you don't enjoy this brussels sprout dish, then it really is not for u.

½ lb back bacon

1 lb brussels sprout, cut in halves with excess stem and outer leaves removed

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

2 tbsp olive oil

Fry the bacon until half-way cooked then remove from frying pan and set aside (in microwave to keep warm). Heat olive oil and sauté the chopped garlic for 2 minutes, add the brussel sprouts and cover, stirring occasionally so it doesn’t stick, cook over low heat for 5 minutes or until tender. Cut the bacon in bit size pieces and add to the pot, stir fry for about 2-5 minutes or until bacon is at your desired preference.

Do not overcook the brussels sprouts as this will release the sulpher smelling glucosinolate and sinigrin, which will give them a sharp taste; good news is however, the bacon and garlic add such great flavor and taste, u probably wont notice :)
