It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of the Brussel Sprout in almost any form; but this one is too exceptional NOT to share!  Although, not a deal breaker, I highly recommend that you make your own mayo for this aioli…see previous post!

What you will need:

• Brussel sprouts
• Bacon Grease or Coconut oil
• Salt
• 2/3 c Homemade Mayonnaise (see previous post for recipe)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp Raw Honey
• 1/2 lemon/lime juiced
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• pinch of salt & pepper

How it’s Done:

Brussel Sprouts

1. Preheat at 400
2. Trim the brussels, and half them (depending on size and personal preference)
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (I had JUST baked some bacon and simply reused the same pan)  Ensure that the brussels are well coated with the grease/oil and then salt them.
4. Bake for 5 min
5. Then turn on the broiler, move pan to top rack and broil the brussels for 5-10 min (depending on your broiler, mine is weird)  you want them slightly charred, and crispy…be careful not to OVER-cook them.

Smoky Honey Aioli:

1. Mix mayo, garlic, honey, lemon juice, paprika, salt & pepper together well.
2. Drizzle on top of Brussel Sprouts and devour!!

Optional: top with Bacon 🙂
