Lemony Brussels Sprouts With Bacon And Breadcrumbs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat a large skillet coated with oil over medium-high heat. Fit a wire rack into a sheet pan.
• Working in batches, sprinkle the Brussels sprouts with salt and pan-fry until browned and the outer leaves are crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove to the wire rack. Once all Brussels have been cooked, transfer the sheet pan to the oven until the Brussels sprouts are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish. Top with some grinds of black pepper, a squeeze of lemon, a few shakes of hot sauce and the Parmesan, panko and parsley. Serve!

Steps:

• Remove outer leaves from brussels sprouts; set aside. Halve sprouts; set aside. Pulse bacon in a food processor until finely ground. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-low. Cook bacon, stirring often, until browned around edges and fat is rendered, about 4 minutes. Add breadcrumbs and cook, stirring often, until brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer breadcrumb mixture to paper towels and let cool slightly. Toss in a medium bowl with chile, thyme, and lemon zest; set aside.
• Increase heat to medium-high and heat 2 Tbsp. oil in same skillet. Add reserved halved brussels sprouts; season with salt. Cook, tossing occasionally, until deeply browned all over, 5-8 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover skillet, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Uncover skillet, add reserved leaves and 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, and toss to combine. Cover skillet and cook, tossing occasionally, until leaves are bright green and just wilted, 4-5 minutes. Uncover; add remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice and season with salt.
• Transfer brussels sprouts to a platter, drizzle with more oil, and top with reserved breadcrumb mixture (reheat breadcrumb mixture if needed in a small skillet or in microwave).
• Do Ahead
• Breadcrumb mixture can be made 3 hours ahead; store uncovered at room temperature. Brussels sprouts (without leaves) can be cooked 2 hours ahead; store covered at room temperature. Reheat before adding leaves.

Steps:

• To make the breadcrumbs: Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. When the oil is hot, add the panko. Cook and stir until crisp and light golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool. Season with kosher salt and pepper and stir in the lemon zest. Set aside.
• For the Brussels sprouts: Pour about 2 inches of neutral oil in a large Dutch oven and heat to 370 degrees F. Fry half of the sprouts (be careful, they might splatter when you add them), turning occasionally, until very crisp and browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a cooling rack over a sheet pan. Season with kosher salt. Let the oil come back to temperature and fry the second batch. Season the remaining sprouts with kosher salt.
• To assemble: Spread the yogurt as a base on a platter and mound the fried Brussels sprouts on top. Drizzle around the perimeter with olive oil. Season with flaky salt and black pepper. Drizzle with harissa. Top with the feta and breadcrumbs. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Cook brussels sprouts in medium saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain. Spread brussels sprouts on rimmed baking sheet in single layer. Sprinkle with bacon, lemon slices, salt, and pepper; stir. Roast brussels sprouts until tender and beginning to brown, stirring every 10 minutes, about 30 minutes. Transfer to bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Chiffonade the sprouts by cutting crosswise into 1/4" ribbons. Rinse well and set aside.
• Saute the bacon in a large frying pan until cooked, but not too crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Discard all but about a tablespoon of the drippings.
• Saute the sprouts in the drippings over medium heat until just tender. They will turn a lovely shade of green. 3-6 minutes.
• Add back the bacon. Sprinkle the bread crumbs, lemon juice and pepper (to taste) over the sprouts. Stir well to combine.
• Serve immediately.
