Ingredients
  

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

3 tbsp olive oil, divided

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 small onion, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a kick)

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup cooked crispy bacon or pancetta (optional)

2 large eggs (optional, for serving)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Start by thoroughly washing the Brussels sprouts under cold water. Use a sharp knife to trim the stem ends and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise for even cooking.

    Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until the onion turns translucent and soft. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes until the garlic is aromatic, being cautious to prevent burning.

      Combine Brussels Sprouts and Peppers: Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the halved Brussels sprouts and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Season the mix with salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes for extra heat. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and develop a beautiful caramelized color.

        Incorporate Bacon (optional): If using bacon or pancetta, add it to the skillet during the last 3 minutes of cooking. This allows the meat to heat through and meld with the sautéed vegetables, enhancing the flavor of the dish.

          Cook Eggs (optional): If you want to add eggs for a more substantial meal, you can either fry or poach them in a separate skillet while the hash finishes cooking. These will serve as a delightful topping for the hash.

            Serve: Once the Brussels sprouts are golden brown and perfectly cooked, remove the skillet from the heat. Taste the hash and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve this warm, generously topped with a fried or poached egg, and garnished with a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley for an added touch of brightness.

                Presentation Tips: For an aesthetically pleasing presentation, serve the hash in shallow bowls. Nestle the egg on top and sprinkle with parsley right before serving for a burst of color. Consider adding an extra dash of red pepper flakes for a pop of color and flavor!
