Whether you’re hosting a potluck, dinner party, or simply looking to add some excitement to your weeknight meals, Crack Green Beans are the perfect addition to any menu. So, roll up your sleeves, preheat your oven, and get ready to experience green beans like never before.
Ingredients:
5 (8-ounce) cans of green beans, drained
12 slices of bacon, chopped, cooked to crisp and drained (for a healthier option, consider substituting turkey bacon or slices of ham)
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
7 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
Instructions:
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when your Crack Green Beans are assembled and ready for baking.
Take a 9×13-inch baking pan and line it with the drained green beans, creating an even layer across the bottom of the pan.
Next, scatter the cooked bacon pieces over the top of the green beans, distributing them evenly to ensure each bite is packed with savory goodness.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, melted butter, soy sauce, and garlic powder, stirring until all the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture takes on a smooth consistency.
Carefully pour the brown sugar mixture over the green beans and bacon in the baking pan, making sure to coat the entire surface evenly for maximum flavor infusion.
Once assembled, transfer the baking pan to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the green beans are tender yet still slightly crisp.
As the aroma of savory bacon and sweet brown sugar fills your kitchen, resist the urge to peek too often – you want those Crack Green Beans to reach their full potential undisturbed!
Once baked to perfection, remove the Crack Green Beans from the oven and give them a gentle toss to ensure that each bean is coated in the delectable sauce.
With your Crack Green Beans now prepared and plated, it’s time to serve up this sensational side dish and watch as your guests’ eyes light up with anticipation.
