Brussels Sprouts with bacon and pecans
Ingredients
1/4-1/2 cup pecan halves
1 lb. brussels sprouts (cut in halves)
2-3 tbsp buttery spread
3-4 strips of thick bacon
2-3 tbsp chicken broth
Instructions
Cook the bacon and break into small pieces, removing some of the fattier bits. Cook the pecan halves in butter for a few minutes, being careful not to brown them. Cook the brussels sprouts with the bacon for a minute or so, then add the chicken broth and cover. Stir occasionally. Sprouts are done when they are no longer crunchy. Stir the pecans in and serve.
If you blanch the brussel sprouts in sugar water efirst, they're even better...
