Ingredients:
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
8 slices of bacon, cut in half
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional)
Toothpicks for securing the bacon (optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
Step 2: Prepare the Brussels Sprouts
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Brussels sprouts and blanch them for about 5 minutes, just until slightly tender. Drain and let cool.
• Once cool enough to handle, cut each Brussels sprout in half and scoop out a small portion of the center with a knife or spoon to create a little pocket for the cheese.
Step 3: Stuff with Parmesan
• Fill each half of the Brussels sprout with a small amount of grated Parmesan cheese, pressing it in gently.
Step 4: Wrap with Bacon
• Take a half slice of bacon and wrap it around each stuffed Brussels sprout, securing it with a toothpick if necessary.
• Place the wrapped sprouts on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5: Season and Roast
• Drizzle the bacon-wrapped sprouts with olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian herbs (if using).
• Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the Brussels sprouts are tender.
Step 6: Serve
• Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
• Serve warm, removing toothpicks if used.
• Enjoy!
• These Bacon-Wrapped Roasted Brussels Sprouts Stuffed with Parmesan are sure to be a hit at your next gathering or as a delicious side dish for any meal!
