Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil

14g

1 strip bacon

6 brussels sprouts

110g

2 tbsp pistachio nuts

16g

1 egg

50g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Brussels Sprouts: Wash the brussels sprouts thoroughly. Trim the stem ends and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut the brussels sprouts into thin slices.
- Bacon: Cut the bacon strip into small pieces.
- Pistachios: Shell the pistachios if they are not already shelled, and roughly chop them.
- Egg: Crack the egg into a small bowl, being careful not to break the yolk.

2. Cook the Bacon:
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the bacon pieces to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the bacon is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set it aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain.

3. Sauté the Brussels Sprouts:
- In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the sliced brussels sprouts and sauté until they are tender and starting to caramelize, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

4. Add Pistachios and Bacon:
- Add the chopped pistachios to the skillet with the brussels sprouts. Stir to combine.
- Return the cooked bacon to the skillet, mixing it in with the brussels sprouts and pistachios.

5. Cook the Egg:
- In a separate small skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat.
- Gently slide the egg into the skillet and cook to your desired doneness. For a runny yolk, cook for about 2-3 minutes. For a firmer yolk, cook for 3-4 minutes or more.

6. Assemble and Serve:
- Transfer the bacon and brussels sprout hash to a serving plate.
- Carefully place the cooked egg on top of the hash.
- Optionally, season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.

7. Enjoy!

Tips:

- Use a cast iron skillet for an even cook and enhanced flavor.

- Be sure to thinly slice the brussels sprouts for quicker and more even cooking.

- To save time, you can pre-cook the bacon in the microwave on a paper towel-lined plate before adding it to the skillet.

- Use freshly shelled pistachios for the best flavor and crunch.

- For a perfectly cooked egg, crack it into a separate small bowl before adding it to the skillet to ensure no shell pieces make it into the hash.

This Bacon and Brussels Sprout Hash with Pistachios and Egg delivers a hearty and nourishing meal with its mix of crispy bacon, tender brussels sprouts, and crunchy pistachios topped with a luscious, runny egg. It's an easy yet impressive dish that's sure to satisfy both your palate and your nutritional needs. Enjoy this flavorful hash on its own or with a slice of toasted sourdough for an added treat.
