crispy roasted brussels sprouts

These made a quite decent sprout and slight char was right on the sprout but too brown/black on the leaves for my taste.

Ingredients

2 pounds Brussels sprouts
6 tbsps olive oil
4 ounces panchetta cut in 1/4 inch cubes (I used turkey bacon)
2 tsps kosher salt1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 tsp lemon zest (1 lemon)

Preheat oven to 425 with racks in upper and lower thirds. Trim sprouts ad halve lengthwise, pulling off and reserving outer leaves. Put sprouts and leaves in a large bowl  preheat two baking sheets, mix oil, salt, pepper, add to sprouts and meat and toss.  put sprouts on the baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes. Rotate top to bottom and bake another 6 minutes or until sprouts are browned and leaves are browned and  Remove from oven and sprinkle with lemon zest Serve immediately or leave on the baking sheets up to 2 hours (I don't know about the meat...the recipe doesn't mention that!)
