Can't get your kids to eat brussel sprouts?  Here is a sure way the kids to clean their plates.

The glaze it what makes the dish so don't skimp on the glaze.  

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 oz pancetta, minced
  • 2 lb brussels sprouts, 
  • 3 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced or sliced thin
  • kosher salt and fresh ground pepper(omit pepper with AI)
  • 1/2 cup organic balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon surkin gold sugar alternative(optional) can also use honey, but I would use less of it since it is sweeter than the Surkin Gold. But you don't really need a sweetener at all.  Just make sure you reduce the vinegar well.   
  • This is the Pancetta I use:

INSTRUCTIONS

  • With a large sharp knife, finely shred the brussels sprouts after thoroughly washing.
  • In a deep heavy saute pan, sauté pancetta on medium-low heat until fat melts and pancetta becomes golden, about 5 minutes. Add olive oil and garlic and sauté until golden. Add shredded brussels sprouts, salt and pepper to taste and sauté on high heat for about 6 to 10 minutes, until tender crisp.  About 3/4 way through cooking add the balsamic.
  • Combine the balsamic and Sunkin gold(if using) over medium high heat until the vinegar boils stirring frequently.  When the vinegar coats the back of a spoon it is done.
