Brussels Sprouts with Bacon & Parmesan

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Place a heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet in the oven as it preheats.

Rinse and dry Brussels sprouts. Trim the stems and remove any yellow leaves, cut lengthwise into halves or quarters depending on the size. Finely chop shallots.

2. Place Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Toss with olive oil, shallot, salt, pepper, and bacon until coated and well-mixed.
3. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle with a little olive oil. Arrange Brussels sprouts on the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until very golden and tender. I like to flip halfway through.
4. Remove from the oven and give Brussels a final toss to mix. Just before serving, sprinkle all over with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
