Frizzled Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta and Walnuts
Ingredients
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 clove garlic, smashed
- Pinch of crushed red pepper
- ¼ pound pancetta, cut into ¼-inch dice
- ½ cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
- 1 pint Brussels sprouts, stemmed and leaves pulled apart
- Kosher salt
Instructions
- Coat a large sauté pan with olive oil; add the garlic and red pepper and bring to medium heat. When the garlic has turned a lovely golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, remove it from the pan and ditch it. It has fulfilled its garlic destiny!
- Add the pancetta and walnuts and cook until the pancetta is crispy and brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the brussels sprouts and toss to combine. Season with salt, cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the sprouts have wilted.
- Remove the lid, raise the heat to medium-high, and let the sprout leaves brown and “frizzle”, 8-10 minutes more. Taste and season with salt if needed.
