Brussels Sprouts In A Balsamic Glaze With Pancetta Recipes

Steps:

• In a heavy 10 inch saute pan set over medium low heat, slowly cook pancetta in 1 Tbsp olive oil until golden and crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove pancetta to a plate lined with paper towels, leaving fat in pan. There should be about 2 tbsps. of fat left in pan. If not, add remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil. Have ready 1/2 cup water.
• Put the pan over medium high heat, and arrange Brussel's sprouts cut side down in a single layer. Cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes. When the sprouts are browned, add water to pan, cover immediately and simmer until the sprouts are are tender when poked, about 3 minutes. (If water evaporates before sprouts are tender add more water, 1/4 cup at a time.) With a slotted spoon, transfer the sprouts to a bowl.
• Return pan to medium high heat, and if any water remains let it boil off. Add balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper. Boil vinegar until it's reduced to about 2 Tbsps and looks syrupy, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add butter, and stir till melted.
• Return the sprouts and pancetta to the pan and swirl and shake the pan to evenly coat the sprouts with sauce. Season to taste with salt and more pepper. Serve.

Steps:

• Set the temp on a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Clean all the Brussels sprouts and make one cut from the top down toward the stem end, being careful not to cut all the way through. Make another cut crossing the first like an X also down toward the stem end but not all the way through. Set aside in a bowl.
• Add the olive oil and pancetta to a large saute pan over medium heat. Crisp the pancetta just until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes, then remove it from the pan and drain off half of the fat in the pan.
• Place the pan back on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until translucent, about 3 minutes, then place the pancetta back in the pan as well.
• Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar and reduce by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock and reduce until you have about 1/3 cup liquid glaze in the pan, about 15 minutes.
• Deep fry the Brussels sprouts until they are golden brown and green in color, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined sheet tray, then toss in the pan with the glaze and stir well to coat.
• Spoon into a serving dish and use a rasp grater to grate lemon zest and Parmesan over the top.

Steps:

• In a heavy 10 inch saute pan, set over medium low heat, slowly cook pancetta in 1 tablespoons olive oil until golden and crisp all over. About 15 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer pancetta to a plate lined with a paper towel, leaving fat in pan. You should have about 2 Tbsps. of fat remaining, if not add remaining 1 tablespoons oil to pan. Have ready 1/2 cup water.
• Put the pan over medium high heat and arrange the sprouts cut side down in a single layer. Cook undisturbed until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes. When the sprouts are browned, add water to the pan, cover immediately and simmer until the sprouts are tender. If water evaporates before sroupts are tender, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time. With a slotted spoon, transfer sprouts to a bowl. Return pan to medium high heat, and if any water remains, let it boil off.
• Add balsamic vinegar and a few grinds of pepper. Boil vinegar until it's reduced to about 2 Tbsps., and looks syrupy. About 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and add butter, and stir until it's melted. Return sprouts and pancetta to the pan and swirl and shake the pan until the sprouts are evenly coated. Season with salt and more pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the Brussels sprouts on a sheet pan, including some of the loose leaves, which get crispy when they're roasted. Add the pancetta, olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, toss with your hands, and spread out in a single layer. Roast the Brussels sprouts for 20 to 30 minutes, until they're tender and nicely browned and the pancetta is cooked. Toss once during roasting. Remove from the oven, drizzle immediately with the balsamic vinegar, and toss again. Taste for seasonings, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Place Brussels sprouts in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan; toss with 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper. Roast 30-35 minutes or until lightly charred and tender, stirring halfway., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add pancetta; cook and stir 4-6 minutes or until crisp. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar., In a large bowl, combine Brussels sprouts, cranberries and pancetta mixture; toss to combine. Sprinkle with pine nuts.

Steps:

• Combine Brussels sprouts and bacon in a cast iron skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until Brussels sprouts start to brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Drizzle 1/2 cup of balsamic vinegar on top.
• Transfer Brussels sprouts and bacon to a serving platter; drizzle remaining balsamic vinegar on top.

Steps:

• In a large (12 inches or wider) frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes, until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a small bowl. Return the pan to medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the Brussels sprouts, keeping them in a single layer as much as possible. Having a few extra sprouts is fine, but if they are mounded in a pile, they will not brown or cook evenly. If necessary, use a larger pan, cook them in two batches, or pull out the extra for another use. Stir in the salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and well browned-even charred in spots. If the sprouts are browning too quickly, lower the heat to medium.
• Add the fig jam and the water and stir until the jam melts and coats the Brussels sprouts. Add the reserved pancetta and the pepper and stir to combine. Taste and add additional salt or pepper if needed. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Combine Brussels sprouts and onion together in a bowl; add 3 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper and gently toss to coat. Spread sprouts mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sprouts and onion are tender and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat; saute shallot until tender, about 5 minutes. Add balsamic vinegar and cook until glaze is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir rosemary into glaze and pour over sprouts mixture.
