BRUSSELS SPROUT SLAW WITH SPICED YOGURT
6 servings

A warm, hearty slaw for wintertime; perfect for the Thanksgiving table.

Cook in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp:

  • 4 slices bacon, diced

Drain the bacon on paper towels. Add to the hot fat in the skillet:

  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed

Cook the garlic until it starts to brown, turning it to brown both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the garlic, mince it, and set aside. Add to the skillet:

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and shredded
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sprouts are tender and starting to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Meanwhile, add the minced garlic to a medium bowl, along with:

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Add the softened Brussels sprouts to the bowl. If there are any browned bits, deglaze the skillet with a splash of water and add to the bowl as well. Crumble and stir in the reserved bacon. Add:

  • Salt to taste

If desired, garnish with:

  • (Pomegranate seeds)
