Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
- 5 slices bacon thick cut
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon honey
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cut bacon into small pieces and add to a large sauté pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes. They do not need to be crispy at this point. They will continue to crisp as the Brussels sprouts cook.
- Add Brussels sprouts to the pan, placing them cut side down. Let them cook without moving over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, or until they turn a golden brown color on the cut side and are fork tender throughout. If they start to get too browned, turn the heat down just a bit. Season with salt and pepper.
- When the Brussels are done, remove from heat and sprinkle craisins over the pan. Drizzle honey over everything. Season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
