Maple Brussels Sprouts With Bacon Recipes

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH MAPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. (To get them perfectly crispy, make sure this is the only pan in the oven and you're not roasting anything else at the same time.)
• Slice off any hard ends of the Brussels sprouts, as needed. Slice them in half lengthwise and place them in a large bowl.
• Mix the sprouts with the olive oil, kosher salt, and lots of fresh ground black pepper.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper*, then pour the spouts onto the sheet. Turn them all cut side down.
• Roast for 25 minutes until very browned and tender (don't stir!).
• While the sprouts are roasting, place the maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Simmer 3 to 5 minutes on medium low heat until thickened slightly and reduced (this should result in about 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoons glaze).
• When the sprouts are done, pour over the maple balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.
