Steps:
- Toss the green beans into a large pot of boiling salted water and cook until bright green in color and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the beans and shock in a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the beans again and pat dry.
- Cook the bacon in a large, heavy saute pan until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Spoon off the excess bacon grease, leaving 2 tablespoons in the pan. Add the onion to the pan and saute until soft and very tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle in the garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until just fragrant, about 1 more minute. Add the reserved green beans and the pecans and cook until heated through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Return the bacon to the pan, pour in the lemon juice and toss. Season with salt and pepper.
EASY DELICIOUS BACON GREEN BEANS
I've never been a big fan of green beans, until my mom put bacon in her canned green beans one time. It added so much flavor! I decided to create my own green bean dish, and came up with this! I took it to church for dinner one night, and now it is a constant request! I don't usually measure when I cook, so play with the measurements to what suits you!
