Roasted Green Beans with Bacon and Onion
I love the combination of green beans with bacon and onions and I can’t believe I haven’t tried roasting them all together before. Recently, I was making some chicken thighs for dinner and wanted to pair them with some simply seasoned roasted green beans. Adapting my normal recipe a bit, I added some onion and finely diced bacon to be roasted with the green beans. After they roasted for 20 minutes, the green beans and onion were tender and the bacon bits were crispy. These roasted green beans with bacon and onion were super simple to make, tasted fantastic, and we all loved them.
How to Make Roasted Green Beans with Bacon and Onion
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Toss the green beans with the onion and bacon pieces with olive oil; season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.
Place into the oven to roast for 10 minutes; stir with a spatula then continue to roast for another 7-10 minutes, or until the green beans and onion are tender and the bacon bits are crispy.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy.
