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!
