Ingredients

4 servings

1 pound brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved)
1/2 pound bacon (about 8 slices) (chopped into ½-inch pieces)
2 tablespoons olive oil (1 tablespoon if using thick-cut bacon)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2
In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts, bacon, olive oil, garlic, and Italian seasoning until evenly coated.
3
Spread in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet, turning sprouts cut side down. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4
Roast on the center rack for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring once halfway, until the bacon is crisp and the sprouts are deep golden brown.
5
Taste, adjust salt and pepper, and serve warm.

Notes

Don't crowd the pan. For a double batch, use two sheet pans so the sprouts roast instead of steam. Bacon swaps: Turkey bacon works but renders less fat, so keep the full 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Make ahead: Prep the sprouts and bacon up to 2 days ahead and store them separately. Roast just before serving. Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat: Air fryer at 375°F for 3 to 5 minutes or a 400°F oven for about 8 minutes. Lebanese-style finish: Add a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of Aleppo pepper right out of the oven.
