Ingredients

1 lb. green beans, trimmed
3-4 slices lean bacon, chopped
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 Tbsp. white vinegar
1 Tbsp. sugar
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Cooking Instructions

Boil or steam the beans until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and set aside. Cook the bacon in a skillet over moderate heat until lightly browned. Add the onions and cook until the bacon is crisp and the onions are tender but not brown. Remove from the heat and add the vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper, stirring to dissolve the sugar and the brown bits on the bottom of the skillet. Pour the bacon mixture over the green beans and toss to combine. Serve immediately. Serves 4 to 6.
