A crispy Brussels sprout dish is delicious, but a crispy Brussels sprout with pancetta? That’s heaven. The bacon-like cubes of ham release mouthwatering, umami-flavored fat onto the pan, which gets soaked up by the sprouts as they roast. Usually you’d have to fry Brussels sprouts to get them adequately caramelized, but the pancetta boosts crispiness (and plenty of deliciously rich and salty flavor).
