Balsamic-Roasted Brussels Sprouts

Sides

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half through the core

4 ounces pancetta or bacon, 1/4-inch-diced

1/4 cup good olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tablespoon syrupy balsamic vinegar

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Toss together the Brussels sprouts, pancetta, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Spread out in a single layer on a sheet pan.

Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, tossing once half-way through, until they're tender and nicely browned, and the pancetta is cooked.

Remove from the oven & drizzle immediately with the balsamic vinegar, then toss again.

Taste for seasonings, and serve hot.
