Roasted with olive oil, salt and pepper, the sprouts and the pancetta crisp up in unison, the fat from the pancetta flavoring the sprouts, whose crispy surfaces emerge glistening and caramelized. Just as the pan exits the oven, everything gets tossed with a few tablespoons of syrupy balsamic vinegar, which serves not only to deglaze the pan but also to provide that bite that cabbage so often needs.

Remove pan from the oven, drizzle immediately with the balsamic vinegar and toss again. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
