Ingredients

3 slices Bacon thick-cut
12 ounces Fresh Green Beans ends trimmed
3 cloves Minced Garlic
2 tsp Soy Sauce
2 tsp Brown Sugar
2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes & more for garnish

Instructions

Cut the bacon into small pieces and brown over medium heat. When the bacon is crisp, remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Pour off all of the bacon grease except 1 tablespoon. Add the green beans to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, 6-7 minutes until they have begun to char and reached your desired tenderness.
In a small bowl combine the garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar and apple cider vinegar. Toss the green beans in the sauce until the beans are well coated.
Add the bacon, sesame seeds and crushed red pepper for garnish.
Enjoy!
