Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450°F.
Cut the roots off of the Brussels and slice them in half.
Place the Brussels sprouts in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle uncooked bacon pieces over the sprouts and toss with your hands. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet, making sure the Brussels sprouts are cut side down.
Roast the Brussels sprouts for 15 minutes, then shake the pan or flip them. Roast for another 5 minutes or so, until they start to brown and the bacon is crispy. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, as needed. Serve hot.
Notes/Tips
Peel lots of outer leaves off and let them get charred. These are my favorite part!
Make sure the Brussels are turned face down and bake them on the lowest rack.
