Ingredients

For the brussels sprouts

1 ½ pounds brussels sprouts medium-sized
12 ounces bacon center-cut or thin-sliced
¼ cup ghee melted

For the aioli

¼ cup mayonaise
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons coarse grain mustard

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet. Set aside.
Prepare the brussels sprouts by cutting off the rough stems. Tear off any bruised leaves, then wash them in cold water. Fully dry with a towel.
Cut the bacon strips in half. Wrap each brussel sprout in a piece of bacon. Place the seam side down on the baking sheet and repeat until all brussels sprouts are wrapped in bacon. (If brussels sprouts are larger, you may need to use a full strip of bacon).
Brush melted ghee over the bacon on the top of each brussels sprouts.This will get the bacon crispy.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the brussels sprouts are tender and cooked through.
While the brussels sprouts are baking, make the lemon mustard aioli. Add all of the aioli ingredients to a small bowl and mix with a rubber spatula until fully combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Stick toothpicks in each brussels sprout and serve on a platter with a ramekin of mustard aioli. Enjoy!
