A delicious Whole30 side dish made from brussels sprouts, bacon, and a gluten free/soy free sweet and salty sauce.
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 lb brussels sprouts stems removed and halved
- 6 strips sugar free, uncured bacon chopped into 1-2 inch pieces
- ¼ cup coconut aminos
- 3 tbsp olive oil, sesame oil, or avocado oil
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- ½ tsp Red Boat fish sauce
- ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add bacon pieces to the baking sheet and cook for 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the sauce. Combine coconut aminos, oil, vinegar, garlic, fish sauce, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl and whisk well. Add the chopped brussels sprouts to a bowl and pour the sauce over them. Toss to coat well.
- Remove the bacon from the oven and add the sauce-coated brussels sprouts. Toss to combine so the bacon fat is mixed in with everything else.
- Cook for an additional 15 minutes or until the brussels sprouts and bacon are crispy.
