Shredded Brussel Sprout Salad

 shredded brussel sprout salad has made its way to the top of my list over the past year I would say. A lot of them are warm & cozy, full of flavor, and supper fulfilling! Some of my go to’s here in Chicago are @bluedoorlp and @summerhousesm ! Naturally, with the change of seasons & produce, I had to make a warm salad myself! Whip this up for a hearty side, skip the Pancetta to make it veg, make it a main & add vegetarian protein, chicken, or shrimp! Cheers to a change of seasons & new fresh produce 🥂

The Perfect Pair

CONTE DE LA TERRE PINOT NOIR - Earthy & Light, Pairs Perfect With Veggies!

How To:

  1. shred your brussel sprouts if you bout whole ones (remove the stem first!) & place in a large bowl. Drizzle lightly with olive oil + season with S&P. Set aside

  2. over medium heat, coat a pan with EVOO, let it hear a min or 2 & add your pancetta. Let cook until you smell the smoky flavor

  3. add the shallot & garlic to the pancetta & toss until the shallot is translucent. Once translucent, add the mustard & honey, combine well

  4. with your 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, deglaze the pan and pour into the pancetta mixture. Let simmer until all is combined and it turns to a thicker consistency

  5. while the “dressing” thickens on the stove, dice up your apple nice and small & add to the brussel sprouts - toss

  6. once dressing is ready & pancetta is crunchy, drizzle that over the brussel & apple mixture (yes all of it! $ yes keep it hot!)

  7. toss well so all is coated, the brussels will slightly wilt (but also keep their crunch if you have leftovers!)

  8. serve with extra Apple, sprinkle with roasted pepitas for garnish (or your favorite nut/seed) & parmesan cheese for some extra salty goodness!
    ENJOY! Paired mine with a clean crafted Pinot Noir
