Fresh green beans are wrapped in bacon and covered in a sweet sauce in this fast and simple side dish. âEvery time I take these green bean bundles to a luncheon or family dinner, people beg me for the recipe, notes Julie Hewitt from Union Mills, Indiana. Ingredients:
3/4 pound fresh green beans |
4 bacon strips |
3 tablespoons butter, melted |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
1/8 teaspoon soy sauce |
Directions:
1. Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until cooked but not crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove to paper towels.
2. Drain beans; place about 12 beans on each bacon strip. Wrap bacon around beans and secure with a toothpick. Place on an ungreased baking sheet.
3. In a small bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, garlic salt and soy sauce; brush over bundles. Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Yield: 4 servings.
