Tips:

  • Choose tender, fresh green beans: Look for beans that are bright green in color and snap easily when bent. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans: Remove the stem end of each green bean. You can also remove the strings from the beans if desired, but this is not necessary.
  • Blanch the green beans: Blanching helps to preserve the color and crispness of the beans. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately remove the beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Cook the bacon: Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it is crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside.
  • Sauté the onion and garlic: In the same skillet, sauté the onion and garlic in the bacon fat until the onion is softened and translucent.
  • Add the green beans, bacon, and seasonings: Add the blanched green beans, cooked bacon, salt, pepper, and thyme to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  • Cook until the green beans are heated through: Cook the green beans over medium heat until they are heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Serve immediately: Serve the green beans while they are hot.

Conclusion:

These easy and delicious green beans with savory and bacon are a perfect side dish for any occasion. They are healthy, flavorful, and sure to please everyone at the table. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can have a delicious and nutritious dish that the whole family will love.
