Equipment

Dutch oven
Measuring cups and spoons
Knife and cutting board
Plate and paper towel

Ingredients

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
6 slices bacon, chopped
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the chopped bacon in a large Dutch oven and cook over medium heat until the bacon is crispy, approximately 8-10 minutes. Once done, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain the excess fat.
In the same Dutch oven with the remaining bacon fat, add the olive oil, garlic powder, and the halved Brussels sprouts. Stir to coat the sprouts evenly with the oil and seasonings.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through to ensure even cooking and browning.
Remove the Dutch oven from the oven, and sprinkle the roasted Brussels sprouts with the cooked bacon bits and grated Parmesan cheese. Toss everything together while the sprouts are still hot so the cheese melts and coats the vegetables nicely.
Place the Dutch oven back in the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden.
Serve immediately as a delectable keto-friendly side dish.

Notes

For crispier Brussels sprouts, you can broil them for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.

Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preference, and consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
