Preparation
- Serving size:5 oz (calculated)Notes: 2/3 cup
- Temperature: 375 °F (preheated, circulating air)
- Clean and trim the Brussels sprouts, then cut them in half lengthwise.
- In a large pan over medium-high heat, fry the bacon until crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove from the pan and set aside for later.
- Melt the butter in the same pan and cook the Brussels sprouts in it until they start to crisp up and char, about 5 to 8 minutes. It's best if the Brussels sprouts are cut-side down and you don't stir them, just check on the doneness by flipping one over after 5 minutes or so.
- Add the minced garlic and stir for about half a minute until it becomes fragrant.
- Pour in the cream and bring to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to medium and let simmer until the cream thickens, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Chop up the bacon and stir it in.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Top with the grated mozzarella and parmesan.
- Bake in the oven until the Brussels sprouts have the desired tenderness and the cheese has melted and browned, about 10 minutes.
- Enjoy!
- You can store the dish in an airtight container for 5 days in the fridge or up to 6 months in the freezer. For best results, thaw overnight. It's best to reheat the Brussels sprouts in the oven. Like this they have a crisper texture than if you microwave them. Alternatively, reheat them in a pan on the stovetop.
