6 sl Thick cut bacon; cut across
- in 1/4" to 3/8" pieces
2 lb Fresh green beans; tipped,
- strung, in no more than
- 2" pieces
1 lg Brown onion; peeled, sliced,
- slices cut in medium pieces
2 tb Brown sugar
Cook the bacon in a heavy skillet with the onion until the onion is
translucent and the bacon is beginning to crisp a bit. Stir in the
brown sugar. Lower heat to just keep the pan warm.
Steam the green beans until crisp-tender. Add to the skillet with
the bacon and onion. Return the skillet to a simmer and cover with
a lid for 2 minutes or so. Stir and taste one of the beans. If
necessary give them another 1 to 2 minutes.
