Ingredients
- 500 g Brussels sprouts
- 4 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 1 Lime
- 1 Avocado
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Step 2
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellowing outer leaves. Cut larger sprouts in half for even cooking.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Spread the Brussels sprouts evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 20 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through.
Step 5
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain, then crumble into pieces once cooled.
Step 6
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Remove from heat.
Step 7
Cut the avocado into cubes and squeeze half the lime over it to prevent browning.
Step 8
Once the Brussels sprouts are done, transfer them back to the large bowl. Add the crumbled bacon, sautéed garlic, avocado cubes, and a sprinkle of red chili flakes (if using).
Step 9
Squeeze the remaining lime juice over the dish and toss gently to combine.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy!
