Your fresh green beans just got an upgrade! Bacon-wrapped green beans take the crisp, garden-fresh vegetable to another level. These little bundles make a fantastic side dish for almost anything, from pork chops to fried chicken. Like most bacon-wrapped recipes<\/a>, these green beans look impressive, so you can even serve them for a dinner party or special occasion. But any ol’ Wednesday will do, too.<\/p>\n This dish is all about balance and contrast. Deep, smoky bacon complements the fresh, bright vegetables, and a slightly sweet soy sauce drizzled on top brings it all together. These bacon-wrapped green bean bundles make good use of vegetables straight from the garden or farmers market, so it’s a fantastic summer side dish recipe<\/a>. But the bacon and sauce will make even off-season beans taste amazing.<\/p>\n Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F. Place the green beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, until crisp-tender, six to eight minutes. Drain the beans.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> When you blanch vegetables<\/a>, timing is everything. Depending on their size and freshness, you may only need to blanch the green beans for a few minutes.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until cooked but not crisp, about three minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Because we want the bacon to be pliable enough to wrap around the greens, you don’t need to cook it all the way. You can also bake the bacon<\/a>; three to five minutes in a 350\u00b0 oven should keep it wrappable.<\/p>\n Lay the bacon strips on an ungreased baking sheet. Place about 12 beans on top of each bacon strip. Wrap the bacon around the beans and secure with a toothpick.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip: <\/em>After wrapping the beans, check that both ends of the bacon are securely tucked around the beans and speared by the toothpick. That way, your bacon-wrapped green bean bundles will stay together when served.<\/p>\n In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, garlic salt and soy sauce. Brush the sauce over the bundles.<\/p>\n Bake the green bean bundles until the bacon is crisp, 10 to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> If the bacon takes longer to crisp, set the baking sheet under the broiler for two to three minutes.<\/p>\n In the unlikely event of leftovers, put your bacon-wrapped bundles in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge.<\/p>\n Tightly wrapped leftover bacon-wrapped green beans will last up to five days in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n Rejuvenating the crispy bacon is challenging, but pop it back in a 350\u00b0 oven to warm the green bean bundles for a few minutes, and finish them under the broiler for a minute or two. Or use an air fryer to reheat the beans for a few minutes. Microwaves tend to make this dish a little too mushy.<\/p>\n These bacon-wrapped green bean bundles are a great way to make entertaining easy. To prep your green beans wrapped in bacon, blanch the beans and wrap them with the lightly cooked bacon, securing the bundles with a toothpick. Once made, place your bundles in a baking dish, cover and refrigerate for up to three days. When you’re ready to cook, brush each bunch with the garlic-sugar butter and bake them in a preheated oven.<\/p>\n There are no hard and fast rules, but blanching is best. Blanching the green beans first keeps them tender but still crunchy. It also means less time in the oven and preserves the beans’ green color.<\/p>\n There are so many types of bacon<\/a>! Thin-cut bacon is easy to work with and cooks quickly, so the beans don’t become mushy or overcooked. As a bonus, it crisps up faster, creating a crunchy texture. Try applewood smoked bacon or anything with extra smoke on the label to add more depth of flavor.<\/p>\n Pair these bundles with a centerpiece protein like a salt-encrusted prime rib<\/a> or a holiday ham<\/a>, and go wild with sides like garlic mashed potatoes<\/a> and creamy cavatappi mac and cheese<\/a>. Don’t forget dessert! Throw in a special occasion chocolate cake<\/a> recipe for good measure.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bacon-wrapped green beans are like little bundles of savoriness.

Do you have to blanch the green beans before wrapping in bacon?<\/h3>While it\u2019s not strictly necessary to blanch green beans before wrapping them in bacon, we do recommend it. Blanching vegetables<\/a> partially cooks them, making them tender while still maintaining some crunch. If you typically prefer crispier green beans in green bean recipes<\/a>, you can skip the blanching step and wrap the bacon around raw green beans.
What's the best cut of bacon to use for wrapped green beans?<\/h3>We use thin-sliced bacon when making bacon-wrapped recipes<\/a> like wrapped green beans. Thin-cut bacon is one of the easiest types of bacon<\/a> to work with when wrapping vegetables, and it also cooks quickly so the beans don\u2019t become mushy or overcooked. As a bonus, it crisps up more efficiently, creating a better overall texture.
Can you prep bacon-wrapped green beans ahead of time?<\/h3>To prep bacon-wrapped green beans ahead of time, blanch the beans and wrap them with bacon, securing the bundles with a toothpick. Once assembled, cover the bundles and refrigerate for up to 5 days. When you\u2019re ready to cook, brush each bundle with the garlic-sugar butter and pop them into a preheated oven.
