This recipe from Lynn Thomas of London, Ontario really hits the spot. The beer and bacon in these delicious beans makes them worthy of any main dish. Ingredients:
1/3 pound bacon strips, diced |
1 package (16 ounces) frozen cut green beans, thawed |
1/3 cup beer or nonalcoholic beer |
1/3 cup butter, cubed |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
3 tablespoons white vinegar |
4 teaspoons cornstarch |
2 teaspoons grated onion |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring the beans, beer and butter to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until beans are crisp-tender.
2. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to paper towels to drain. Remove beans with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
3. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch and onion until blended. Stir into the saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Add beans; heat through. Sprinkle with bacon. Yield: 4 servings.
