Enjoy this dish during the Holidays
or any time of the year!
This is a yummy recipe I adapted from an In-Style Magazine article, of all places, several years ago. It’s so tasty that even your guests who don’t care for Brussels Sprouts will savor it when they give it a try. It’s perfect for Holiday Cooking and low fat too!
Similar to the Roasted Cauliflower dish, you can prepare this ahead of time, and then roast it while your turkey is resting. It also complements many other main dishes such as Rib Roast, Ham and Pork.
I prepared the Brussels Sprouts last weekend for one of our wine groups and several guests have already asked me for the recipe…so to the Eau de Vie wine group, this one’s for you!
Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- 2 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- ¼ lb bacon, cooked crisp and diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 4 tbsp chicken broth
- ½ cup panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Heat oven to 425°.
In a large bowl toss brussels sprouts with bacon, garlic and olive oil.
Spread vegetables in a single layer in a large baking dish, at least 2 inches high. Roast for 25 minutes or until sprouts are tender. Stir in balsamic vinegar and chicken broth. Sprinkle with panko.
Return to oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
We tasted a good variety of Reds

Hey, just looking at the ingredients again. My eyes love ‘em (and I was NOT a sprouts fan as a kid). Can’t wait to find out what the rest of me thinks!
Wow, great web site you have here. I found your site while looking for another one on about.com. I don’t have time to read all the recipes right now, but I have bookmarked the home page and will visit again very soon to see the latest. I love reading about cooking, it is my favorite past-time. The recipes on your site are incredible. I can’t wait to try them out on my family. They think I’m crazy (and maybe they are right lol) when they see me at work in the kitchen. Visit my site if you’d like to read more. Thank you again for a really nice site. Have a great weekend!
That sounds fantastic – I have some sprouts, bacon and pancetta still in the fridge to use up!!
Why do you all send these lovely ideas in when I am hungry and it is almost mealtimes???
I’m going to try tonight!
Best Wishes to you all from Scotland!
