Steamed and then baked, these scrumptious green beans take on great flavor, because they are wrapped in bacon and bathed in a savory sauce. This recipe is best when you marinate the bundles overnight.

THE BEST GREEN BEANS EVER



The Best Green Beans Ever image

Ree Drummond's Best Green Beans Ever recipe, from The Pioneer Woman on Food Network, starts with bacon grease and gains even more flavor from chicken stock.

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans
2 tablespoons bacon grease (can substitute 2 tablespoons butter)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large onion, chopped
1 cup chicken broth, plus more if needed
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt (can substitute regular table salt, use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon)
Ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Snap the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife if you'd prefer.
  • Melt the bacon grease in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a minute. Then add the green beans and cook until the beans turn bright green, about a minute. Add the chicken broth, chopped red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Turn the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid, leaving the lid cracked to allow steam to escape. Cook until the liquid evaporates and the beans are fairly soft, yet still a bit crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. You can add more chicken broth during the cooking process, but don't be afraid to let it all cook away so the onions and peppers can start to caramelize.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the green beans. Remove the ends of the beans, and then cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • Blanch the green beans. This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Prepare the filling. The filling for the green bean bundles can be anything you like. Some popular options include cooked minced meat, bacon, sausage, cheese, or nuts.
  • Wrap the green beans in prosciutto. Lay a slice of prosciutto on a flat surface. Place a green bean in the center of the prosciutto, and then wrap the prosciutto around the bean. Secure the prosciutto with a toothpick.
  • Bake the green bean bundles. Place the green bean bundles on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until the prosciutto is crispy and the green beans are heated through.

Conclusion:

Green bean bundles are a delicious and easy appetizer or side dish. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be made ahead of time. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is a green bean bundle recipe for everyone. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to serve green beans, give these bundles a try.
