For the best browning of the beans, place the oven rack in the top third of the oven. Use a large jelly-roll pan so you can spread the beans out in a single layer. Also, the rim of the pan will help contain the bacon drippings. Ingredients:
2 bacon slices |
2 small shallots, sliced |
1 (12-ounce) package trimmed thin green beans |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°. 2. Place bacon on a large jelly-roll pan. Bake at 450° for 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp. 3. Drain bacon on paper towels, reserving 2 teaspoons drippings in pan. Discard remaining drippings. 4. Add shallots and beans to drippings in pan; toss to coat. Arrange beans in a single layer on pan, and sprinkle with salt. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes; stir and bake an additional 7 minutes or until lightly browned and tender. Crumble bacon; sprinkle over beans. |
