Ingredients
-
1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts
-
2 Tbsp grapeseed oil
-
2 oz. pancetta (or bacon), finely chopped
-
1 shallot finely diced
-
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
-
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
-
Parmesan cheese (shaved into strips)
Directions
-
Trim the Brussels sprouts and discard any damaged outside leaves.
-
Using a food processor, force the sprouts a few at a time through the chute with the blade in motion. You should have about 8 cups of shredded sprouts.
-
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring often, until very lightly browned 3-5 minutes. Add the sprouts and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes.
-
Pour in the vinegar and increase the heat to high. Season with salt and pepper and stir until the vinegar has evaporated.
-
Top with Parmesan strips and serve.
Tip: Add red and or yellow pepper strips while sautéing pancetta for a boost of color, flavor and nutrition.
