Crafted to perfection, they’re not only a personal favorite but also a regular request at our family dinners. With the savory crunch of bacon and a burst of zesty seasoning, these green beans are sure to elevate any meal.

Ingredients:

  • 2-3 cups fresh green beans
  • 4-5 strips bacon
  • Lemon pepper, to taste
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Onion powder, to taste
  • Salt, to taste
  • 2-3 cups chicken broth

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Green Beans: Begin by cleaning the fresh green beans, and if desired, tear off the ends. This ensures a pristine presentation and enhances the texture.

  2. Cook Bacon: In a large pot, fry 4 or 5 strips of bacon until they reach a crispy perfection. Once done, remove the bacon from the pot and set it aside momentarily.

  3. Season to Taste: Add lemon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to the pot, allowing the flavors to meld together and infuse the dish with aromatic goodness. Adjust the seasoning according to your preferences, ensuring a personalized touch in every bite.

  4. Combine Ingredients: Return the crispy bacon to the pot, crumbling it over the seasoned green beans. This step not only adds a delightful smoky flavor but also contributes a satisfying crunch to the dish.

  5. Add Chicken Broth: Pour approximately 2-3 cups of chicken broth into the pot, ensuring there’s enough to create steam for cooking the green beans. The broth adds a depth of flavor while tenderizing the beans to perfection.

  6. Steam Green Beans: Cover the pot and allow the broth to come to a boil. As the broth steams, it will gently cook the green beans, infusing them with savory goodness.

  7. Stir Occasionally: Throughout the cooking process, gently stir the green beans to ensure even cooking and distribution of flavors. This helps achieve a harmonious blend of all the ingredients.

  8. Serve and Enjoy: Once the green beans reach your desired level of tenderness, remove them from the heat. Serve them hot as a delectable side dish that is sure to tantalize your taste buds and leave everyone craving more!
