By á-47

Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
• 5 slices bacon, diced
• 1 Tbsp. grated orange zest
• 3 Tbsp. butter
• 2 tea. coarse mustard
• 1 lb. fresh Brussels Sprouts, rinsed, trimmed and halved
• 1 can (4 oz) whole water chestnuts, drained and chopped

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet, then add the bacon and fry it until it turns golden brown, 2-3 minutes.

Add the orange zest, butter, mustard, and Brussels sprouts. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the Brussels sprouts are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the water chestnuts and cook until the Brussels sprouts are golden and the chestnuts are heated through, 3-4 minutes.

Add salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.
