Brussel Sprouts and Bacon

Ingredients
4 slices thick-cut bacon, sliced into 1/4-inch strips, or more to taste
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved, or more to taste
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced, or more to taste
1/2 cup chicken stock, or more as needed
1 tablespoon butter, or to taste
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-low heat; cook until just crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving bacon grease in skillet.
Increase heat to medium-high under skillet; saute Brussels sprouts in the bacon grease until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic to Brussels sprouts; saute until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
Pour chicken stock over Brussels sprouts mixture and cover skillet with a lid; simmer until Brussels sprouts are bright green, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove lid and continue simmering until liquid is evaporated and sprouts are tender, about 5 more minutes.
Remove skillet from heat and stir bacon, butter, vinegar, salt, and pepper into Brussels sprouts mixture until butter is melted.

I just got some brussel sprouts, never ate or cooked them before but wanted to try them and while searching for an easy recipe, I picked yours. It's simple enough for my liking. I already have everything but the bacon and vinegar. After I get that tomorrow, I will be cooking this. Will do a follow up. Thanks

I'm going to try these today but I have to eliminate the balsamic vinegar because I'm allergic to it.

Wouldn't the Brussels sprouts be better halved? Nice recipe! Thanks

[@southerngirlcooks]

I like them whole, but have also had them halved. I think It's a matter of personal preference 🥰. Thanks for watching and commenting! I do hope that you are subscribed, if not, please smash that button! 🥰🥰🥰

Welcome!!!

[@mrseye7728]

Because bacon creates grease, I don’t think spraying Pam is needed but this looks yummy!

[@southerngirlcooks]

Hi! Sometimes, the lean part of the bacon sticks to the pan. That is why I use Pam :) Hope you enjoy! Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to hit the subscribe button! :) Happy Holidays!

I came here to say this 👆😉

[@cindybond687]

I said the same thing.

[@r.kelley3722]

Cut the sprouts in half for better flavor

[@MrPINKFL0YD]

I was just thinking that...

[@DestinyDawn0212]

Wat if I don't have balsamic vinegar will that through the recipe off if I don't use it 🙂

[@southerngirlcooks]

Hi! Do you have apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar?

[@DestinyDawn0212]

Are they tender

[@southerngirlcooks]

Yes. They are very tender😊

[@ruthwatson3933]

How much balsamic ginger do I in?

[@southerngirlcooks]

Hi, Ruth! Tell me your question. I am confused with what you are asking :)

[@daleLan1]

Why would you use PAM?! It's BACON! It renders its own 'slick'! Looks good though!

[@southerngirlcooks]

Bacon still can stick. That's why Stephanie adds PAM. 😊 I always say "Make it your own". If PAM is not for you, don't use it😊. Thanks for stopping by.

[@leslychavez211]

A hit ;)

[@pearsemcguinness1889]

Would you, for gods sack STOP playing with the food and let it cook!!

[@southerngirlcooks]

LOL!
