Ingredients: 1 tablespoon olive oil; 4 slices bacon, chopped into 1-inch pieces; 12 ounces Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved; 3/4 cup shallots, thickly sliced; 1 cup chicken broth; 1/4 cup dry vermouth; 1/2 cup golden raisins; Grated parmesan cheese; 6 ounces pasta (spaghetti or linguine); Salt and pepper

1
Add the bacon and olive oil to a large non-stick skillet set over medium heat. Saute until the bacon is nearly crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon and drain on some paper towels.
2
Toss in the brussels sprouts and shallots and cook in the bacon fat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. The Brussels sprouts should start to brown.
3
Pour in the broth and vermouth, and sprinkle in the raisins. Bring pan to a boil, dislodging any browned bits on the bottom with a wooden spoon. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the sprouts are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add the bacon back to the pan just to warm it up.
4
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the directions on the box. When al dente, transfer the pasta to the skillet and cook over high heat for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Grate some parmesan on top, and serve.
