Charred Brussels Sprouts Pasta with Bacon and Dates

Ingredients

• 12 ounces bacon, sliced into 1/4 inch wide matchsticks (I used center cut and cut them vertically with kitchen shears)

• 2 pounds brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt + a healthy pinch for pasta water
