Ingredients
- 1. A generous portion of hearty smoked bacon slices weighing in at one pound
- 2. A drizzle of fragrant olive oil, just a spoonful
- 3. Brussels sprouts, meticulously trimmed and halved, totaling one and a half pounds
- 4. A sprinkle of salt and freshly ground black pepper, to suit your taste buds
- 5. Two large sweet yellow onions, elegantly sliced
- 6. A can of cream-style corn, sized at fifteen ounces
- 7. Five stems of fresh thyme, plucked and ready to infuse their delightful flavor
Step 1
To kick off this culinary adventure, preheat your oven to a toasty 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Let's get creative with some bacon by slicing it into charming 1/4-inch strips known as lardons.
Step 2
In a spacious skillet over medium heat, heat up some oil until it shimmers with anticipation. Toss in the bacon lardons and let them sizzle and crisp up beautifully for about 5 to 7 minutes. Once done, lovingly place them on a paper towel-lined plate to rest while you admire their golden hue. Don't forget to keep those flavorful bacon drippings in the skillet for a little magic later on.
Step 3
Now, onto the humble Brussels sprouts. Lay them out on a sheet pan and sprinkle them with a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle them with a bit of that reserved bacon drippings and give them a gentle toss to coat them in all their savory goodness.
Step 4
Pop the pan in the preheated oven and let the Brussels sprouts roast for about 15 minutes. As they start to sing with flavor, switch on the broiler and let them dance a little longer until they sport a delightful char, typically around 5 to 6 minutes.
Step 5
While those Brussels sprouts work their magic, return to the skillet with the remaining bacon drippings. Toss in some onions and let them saute gently until they transform into caramelized perfection, which usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes of patient stirring.
Step 6
Once the Brussels sprouts are all roasted and charred to your liking, mix them into the skillet along with some corn and a sprinkle of thyme. Give everything a good stir, allowing the flavors to mingle and dance together for about 5 minutes, until they are all warmed through and singing in harmony. Enjoy this delightful dish fit for any occasion!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep Brussels sprouts fresh by storing them in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator, wrapped in a damp paper towel to maintain their crispness.
- 2. Try blanching and freezing Brussels sprouts in portioned bags for quick and easy access to this versatile vegetable anytime.
