Prep Time 20 Min | Cook Time 25 Min | Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 4 oz pancetta, diced
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sugar

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts and diced pancetta with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
  • Spread the mixture on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, until the sprouts are golden brown and the pancetta is crispy.
  • In a saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and sugar. Heat the mixture until the sugar dissolves, then simmer to reduce it by half and create a thick, syrupy glaze.
  • Once the Brussels sprouts and pancetta are done, transfer them to a serving bowl and drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Toss gently to coat everything in the glaze.
  • Enjoy!
