3 strips of bacon, small diced
1 shallot, julienned
2 garlic cloves, smashed
4 cups Brussels, quartered
1 apple, Honeycrisp if available, sliced thin using a mandolin
½ cup chicken broth
1 lemon
½ teaspoon rosemary, finely chopped
Eggs, to top

In a sauté pan over medium heat cook the bacon until it renders its fat, remove half of its fat. Add the shallot and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the Brussels and cook for 3-4 minutes to give them a little color. Add the apple, broth and reduce by half, stirring gently. Add the juice of ½ lemon and rosemary; taste for salt and add pepper. Serve with or without a fried egg on top.
