Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Toss baguette cubes with olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Place on a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Place a wire cooling rack on a separate baking sheet; lay bacon slices on top. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Bake bacon and baguette cubes in the preheated oven until bacon is browned and baguette is toasted, about 15 minutes; make sure to turn the bread halfway through. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Finely chop bacon. (25 minutes)

05

Step

Mash anchovy fillets, garlic, and mustard together with a fork in a large salad bowl. Add mayonnaise, 1/2 of the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, lemon juice, Worcestershire, and season with salt and pepper. Whisk dressing until well combined. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Shave Brussels sprouts using a mandolin; place into the bowl with the dressing. Add 1/2 of the bacon and croutons; toss until well coated. Serve with remaining Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, croutons, and bacon on top. (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the croutons before baking.
If you don't have a mandolin, you can thinly slice the Brussels sprouts with a sharp knife.
Make the dressing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To ensure crispy bacon, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet.
