tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

cup pomegranate seeds

tbsp red wine vinegar

tsp red pepper flake

kosher salt

Instructions
0 Add bacon to a large skillet and heat over medium high heat. 1 Cook for 5-7 minutes until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate and reserve. 2 Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet, and when the oil shimmers, add the Brussels sprouts cut side down along with a large pinch of salt and cracked pepper. 3 Cook until charred around the edges, about 5-8 minutes. Stir, and continue cooking another 8-10 minutes until soft, tasting for salt and adding as needed. 4 Reduce heat to medium and add the pomegranate seeds, vinegar, and red pepper flakes (if using). 5 Cook for another 1-2 minutes. 6 Remove from heat and toss the Brussels sprouts with the reserved bacon bits. 7 Serve warm.View original recipe
