Ingredients
- 4 slices center-cut bacon
- 2 1/2 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
- 1 large red onion, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
- Place bacon in a single layer in the basket of an air fryer. Air-fry at 400 degrees F until the bacon is crisp, about 14 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
- Toss Brussels sprouts, onion, oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place about half of the Brussels sprouts mixture in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air-fry at 375 degrees F until browned and crispy, 14 to 16 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Transfer to a serving platter. Repeat with the remaining Brussels sprouts mixture. Drizzle with lemon juice; sprinkle with thyme. Crumble the cooked bacon over the top. Recipe developed by Anna Theoktisto
