Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 1 ½ pounds green beans (6-8 beans per bundle)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 375°F.
-
Cook bacon on the stovetop until slightly cooked (not crispy), about 3-4 minutes. Reserve any drippings.
-
Trim and wash green beans. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add baking soda. Add green beans and cook 3 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove from boiling water and place in a bowl of ice water to stop cooking.
-
Dab beans dry and toss with reserved bacon drippings (about 2 teaspoons) or olive oil if you don't have drippings, garlic powder, and salt & pepper to taste.
-
Cut each slice of bacon in half and wrap around about 6-8 green beans, secure with a toothpick, and place on a parchment-lined pan.
-
Combine brown sugar with 1 tablespoon of water and lightly brush over each bundle.
-
Roast 20-22 minutes or until bacon is crisp and beans are lightly roasted.
