Brussel Sprouts with Crispy Bacon and Peppers
Ingredients
  • 16 Brussel sprouts, halved
  • 4 rashers of Irish bacon
  • 3 red peppers, sliced, seeds removed
  • 200ml medium bodied white wine
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • salt and freshly ground pepper

Cut bacon into 3-4" pieces and grill until crisp. Set aside.

In a pan with a lid, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add peppers and season. Cook at medium high heat until the peppers are slightly charred, about 10 minutes.

In a second pan, heat butter and 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add Brussel sprouts. Cook for 5 minutes, turn and cook for another 5 minutes. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the sprouts and season.

Assemble all ingredients onto individual plates, spooning any remaining juice over each serving.
