Main Ingredients
1pound Baby Potatoes (I Used Yukon Gold), Cut In Half
1pound Brussels Sprouts, Trimmed & Halved
4 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
1 Tablespoon Whole Grain Mustard
Salt & Pepper
4ounces Pancetta or Bacon, Diced
3 Tablespoons Aged Balsamic Vinegar
Instructions
Preheat and Toss Potatoes: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, place the potatoes, pancetta, 2 tablespoons olive oil, mustard, salt and pepper and toss to coat.
Roast Potatoes and Pancetta: Spread the potatoes and pancetta onto a foil lined baking sheet and roast 20 to 25 minutes, or just until tender.
Stir Roasted Potatoes: Remove from the oven and stir.
Toss Brussels Sprouts: Add the sprouts to the bowl with the remaining oil, salt and pepper and toss.
Add Brussels Sprouts to Baking Sheet: Move the potatoes to one side, and add the sprouts to the baking sheet.
Continue Roasting: Continue to roast until the sprouts are fork tender and the potatoes are golden brown, about another 20 to 25 minutes.
Serve with Balsamic Drizzle: Dump the vegetables into a shallow serving bowl, then drizzle with the balsamic vinegar and serve immediately.
Notes
Use Yukon Gold baby potatoes for the best texture and flavor.
Foil lining the baking sheet helps with easy cleanup.
