Creating Bacon Brussels Sprouts is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Brussels Sprouts: Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Rinse and pat dry.
3. Cook Bacon: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain the excess fat.
4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.
5. Add Brussels Sprouts: Add the halved Brussels sprouts to the skillet, toss them in the bacon grease, and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes.
6. Transfer to Baking Sheet: Spread Brussels sprouts evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Add Bacon: Sprinkle the crispy bacon over the Brussels sprouts and drizzle with olive oil.
8. Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes or until Brussels sprouts are golden brown and crispy.
9. Optional Balsamic Glaze: For added flavor, drizzle balsamic vinegar over the Brussels sprouts during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
10. Serve with Cheese: If desired, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the tops right before serving for an added layer of flavor.
