Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 pound Brussels Sprouts
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 1/4 cup Gochujang
- 2 teaspoons honey (I used local texas honey)
- Kosher Salt
- 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- 2 ounces pancetta
Instructions
- 1
First, rinse your brussels sprouts and dry them thoroughly.
- 2
Slice your brussels sprouts in half. Pat dry again in case they are still damp (you want them as dry as possible to get a good char from the cast iron skillet).
- 3
Turn your stove on to medium-high heat.
- 4
In a bowl, combine gochujang, kosher salt, honey, garlic and avocado oil.
- 5
Put your brussels sprouts in the mixture and coat thoroughly, set aside.
- 6
In your heated pan, pour in pancetta and stir until it gets color – be sure to watch so it doesn’t burn, but it just gets crisp.
- 7
As your pancetta crisps up pour in your brussels sprouts and mixture into the pan.
- 8
Cook until brussels sprouts have some char, and are cooked through (about 10 minutes).

Take off the heat and enjoy!
