Serves:

Ingredients

  • 2 lb green beans, trimmed, blanched, and cooled, cut into 2-3 inches long
  • 5 rashers bacon, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 3 oz red onions, chopped
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 tbsp all purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 380 degrees F.
  2. Add the bacon pieces to a skillet over medium heat. Saute briefly, then add the garlic and onions.

  6. Add cayenne and grated cheese. Whisk until the cheese melts.

  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust accordingly.
  9. Add the green beans and stir gently to combine.
  10. Pour mixture into a baking dish and top with the breadcrumbs.
  11. Bake for about 15 minutes until the sauce is bubbly and the panko or breadcrumbs is golden. Serve immediately!
