Instructions
Creating your Caramelized Brussels Sprouts Bacon Pizza can be a fun and rewarding experience. Follow these easy steps to make it:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).
2. Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the halved Brussels sprouts, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes.
3. Add Bacon: Add the chopped bacon to the skillet and continue to cook until the Brussels sprouts are tender and the bacon is crispy, about 10 more minutes.
4. Caramelize: Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the mixture and stir to coat. Allow it to cook for an additional minute until the vinegar reduces slightly.
5. Assemble the Pizza: On a pizza stone or baking sheet, spread out the pre-made pizza crust. Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese on top.
6. Add Toppings: Evenly distribute the Brussels sprouts and bacon mixture over the cheese. Top with the remaining mozzarella and sprinkle Parmesan cheese.
7. Bake: Place the pizza in the oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
8. Garnish: Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before slicing.
9. Slice and Serve: Cut the pizza into slices and serve hot.
