How to Make Bacon Almond Green Beans
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch for 8-10 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Drain immediately and set aside.
- While the beans are cooking, cook bacon until crispy. Remove bacon from pan, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon fat. Crumble bacon and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 1 minute, or until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Add the blanched green beans to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until heated through.
- Stir in the crumbled bacon and toasted almonds. Toss gently to combine.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy!
