THE BEST BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until the fat is rendered. Add the pine nuts and cook until the bacon is crisp and the nuts are golden, about 1 minute.
• Add the brussels sprouts and the garlic, cover the pan and cook, shaking the pan, until the brussels sprouts are wilted but still bright green and crisp, about 1 minute. Add the carrots and cook for 1 minute longer. Stir in the salt, pepper and chopped parsley. Serve warm.
