Ingredients

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 6 slices Thick-cut bacon
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and halve them lengthwise.

Step 3

In a large oven-safe skillet, cook the thick-cut bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.

Step 4

Add the butter to the skillet with the bacon grease and melt it over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts start to develop a golden-brown sear.

Step 6

Crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it over the Brussels sprouts.

Step 7

Pour the heavy cream over the Brussels sprouts and bacon, then sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly on top.

Step 8

Top the entire skillet with the shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this rich, indulgent dish!
