Cooking instruction summary:
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add breadcrumbs and saut for 3 to 5 minutes, or until toasted and crisp, stirring frequently. Season with 1/8 teaspoon salt, add more as desired. Transfer breadcrumbs to a sheet tray to allow to cool. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until very crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Turn off heat and transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve the pan with the bacon fat. Allow bacon to cool, and then chop into small pieces. In a medium-sized pot, add water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring the water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts and cook 5 to 6 minutes, or until tender. Immediately drain the Brussels sprouts and shake to remove the excess water. Turn heat to medium-high on the pan with the bacon fat drippings. Add the shallots and saut for 2 minutes, until tender, stirring occasionally. Push the shallots to the side of the pan, and add the Brussels sprouts. Cook for about 5 minutes, searing each side of the Brussels sprouts until lightly brown. Turn off heat and season with salt and pepper. Add the bacon to the pan and stir to combine. Transfer Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and top with breadcrumb topping right before serving.
