Bring to a boil, stirring to evenly coat sprouts. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer, stirring a few times, until sprouts are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 18 to 20 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until liquid is reduced to a glaze that evenly coats sprouts, 7 to 9 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in bacon, and serve.
