Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Balsamic

I really love roasted Brussel Sprouts and this sautéed version with Bacon and Balsamic is Delicious. I threw in about 2 T of dried Cranberries at the same time I added the Vinegar and let them rehydrate with heat turned off and lid on the pan for a few moments before serving.

I never write reviews because I really don’t want to waste the time. My 12 year old daughter was just diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and she is extremely picky when it comes to anything food! So the fact that I got her to not just eat these but to even have seconds is just short of amazing!!! We are a family of five and everyone ate them and equally loved them. I followed the recipe exactly as it was written because I am no chef. Thank you for this delicious recipe!!!

I also love this. I used turkey bacon as an alternative because I don't eat pork. I also put about 1 tablespoon of honey in with the vinegar to cut the sharpness of it. I also put all the vinegar in at once so it could reduce a bit. Delicious with the changes!

Might not make it to the serving dish! YUM!

Very good, quick and easy!

Great recipe! We added some chopped onion, fennel and a little minced garlic.

This this the 2nd time I've made this and everyone loved it.

Delicious! Making them again

I used a cast iron skillet, started heating it up on low, then increased to "6". Must have been mistake as I have a very unattractive dish of black brussels spouts. dried cranberries and bacon.

Usually don't like Brussel sprouts but these were awesome.

Absolutely delicious, followed recipe precisely. Will definitely make again

WAY too much balsamic, and I love balsamic. The rest was good but it would be awesome to know what is the recommended stove top cooking temp. I typically roast mine but didn’t want the oven to heat up the house. That was a shoot. They were seriously undercooked at 15 minutes at 7.5 on an electric range.

Fantastic and super easy to make

Great recipe!!! Did it for Thanksgiving. We used lots of bacon bits, instead of bacon. Used a wonderful balsamic glaze I picked up in a spice store. Will definitely do again.

Good recipe not exactly what i wanted. But it’ll work.

I cooked the brussel sprouts and balsamic vinegar for about 5 minutes so the vinegar would reduce.

Delicious!!! Our family’s new favorite !!

O.K., Just not for me

So yummy! My Brussels sprouts loving husband likes his steamed first, so I did that and then put them into the pan with a coating of olive oil and bacon bits that were already cooked. Then I ground black pepper and poured balsamic glaze over, brought it to a boil for a minte or two. Delicious! I usually make an onion and bacon sweet and sour sauce for Brussels sprouts and this was just as good. With the ready cooked bacon bits and ready made balsamic glaze, both from Costco, this was so easy to make!

Delicious ! ??

I loved the brussels sprouts made this way. My husband liked them, but would prefer without balsamic next time. Didn't have bacon, but had prosciutto. Used half the amount of balsamic called for and felt it was perfect! Great and simple way to give the brussels more flavor. The balsamic gives them just a hint of sweet, not a strong vinegar taste. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Excellent results...so delicious and paired with balsamic pork tenderloin

Very easy to make and tasted delicious. Even our children loved them

I like to serve these with a mild Horseradish sauce.

I didn't have bacon, but did have real bacon pieces & I love it!

Following another’s suggestion, added some honey to the balsamic to tone it down a bit. Also limited balsamic to 1/2 cup and added it a bit early to reduce it a little. Delightful served over rice, and Cabernet Sauvignon makes a fine pairing!

This is easy and I baked them in oven with bacon. Then I drizzled balsamic on them.

YUMMMM!!

I also like to add dried low sugar cranberries to this. nice sweet tart taste with the balsamic and bacon

Excellent and quite easy. I’ll definitely make this again.

I’m a wee bit lazy and added chicken breast to the pan. I also didn’t want to reduce the vinegar so I drizzled balsamic vinegar over it before putting oven and voila- it reduced itself. Quick and easy enough for a weeknight meal and will definitely make again.

Easy and simple, yet soooo good

I love Brussels sprouts, my husband tolerates them. This was an easy recipe, but not our very favorite. Although I cooked them even a bit longer than recommended, they weren't as tender as we like. Would I make it again? I would in the summer when I don't like using my oven.

I have a couple regrets in cooking this recipe and one addition to the recipe. I added two rings of a white onion, chopped finely, and added it to the bacon. In hindsight, I wish I had added more liquid, with a bit of olive oil, to create more moisture. Or covered my dish with foil. I chose to use the oven method when it may have been better to use the stove top method instead.

I’ve never enjoyed Brussel Spouts until I made this recipe. I make these at least once a month. They are fabulous cold the next day.

Yummy. I used black truffle balsamic and pre-cooked bacon. Next time I will try pancetta.

Added a little avocado oil while sauteeing to have adequate Browning. Used prepackaged balsamic glaze. Yum.

Will definitely make again

Served at Thanksgiving, everyone loved it! I’ve made it 3 times since! It’s a keeper!!

Added Parmesan cheese and extra garlic. Amazing and simple side dish!

I substituted red wine vinegar for balsamic because I didn't have any. But this is the best recipe I've tried by far. I've made it 3 times now and haven't had any leftovers. Don't omit the vinegar it's important.

I didn’t have any reduced balsamic vinegar, so I added it to the beginning in order for it to reduce. I liked how the Brussels sprouts turned out, but I’ll reduce the vinegar next time before adding it.

first time I have ever tasted brussel sprouts, got some fresh from the farmers market, and used a balsamic glaze, and they came out really good! Will definitely make again!

Great just how the recipe stated.
