  • Salt and Pepper
  • Dried thyme or other herbs as desired
  • 1/4 C Creme fraiche

  3. Add sprouts to the pan and stir gently to coat with butter and bacon
  4. Season as desired with salt, pepper and dried thyme or other herbs

Recipe Notes

Parsley or sage would work well with this dish in place of, or in addition to, the thyme
