Directions

Trim the ends of Brussels sprouts and pull off the outer leaves (if necessary), cut them in half, and set aside.
In a medium sauté pan, cook bacon over medium heat until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to cool, then crumble it.
Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease from the pan. Set the skillet over medium heat, toss in Brussels sprouts, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes.
Add apple juice, cover, and steam until the liquid is almost completely absorbed and the sprouts are tender when pierced with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes. Check on the sprouts a couple times while they are steaming; if the liquid has already dried up, add a little water to the pan.
Transfer sprouts to a serving bowl, top with crumbled bacon, season with salt and pepper, and serve warm.
