GREEN BEANS WITH BACON AND SHALLOTS
These are awesome. I tried these one night at dinner with 6 people, and all agreed that they could eat these beans as the whole meal and forget everything else. I used pepper bacon which added a little more pizzazz.

- Bring a medium pot of cold water to a boil over high heat and salt it generously. Trim the stem end off the green beans. Peel and finely chop the shallot.

- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is just golden, about 2 minutes. Add the green beans, increase the heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through, about 4 minutes.

Steps:
- Toss the green beans into a large pot of boiling salted water and cook until bright green in color and crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the beans and shock in a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the beans again and pat dry.
- Cook the bacon in a large, heavy saute pan until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Spoon off the excess bacon grease, leaving 2 tablespoons in the pan. Add the onion to the pan and saute until soft and very tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle in the garlic and red pepper flakes and saute until just fragrant, about 1 more minute. Add the reserved green beans and the pecans and cook until heated through, 5 to 6 minutes more. Return the bacon to the pan, pour in the lemon juice and toss. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, crisp green beans: Look for beans that are bright green in color and snap easily when broken. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
- Trim the green beans: Remove the tough ends of the green beans. You can do this by snapping them off with your fingers or using a sharp knife.
- Cook the green beans until they are tender-crisp: Green beans should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Use high-quality bacon: The type of bacon you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for bacon that is thick-cut and has a good smoky flavor.
- Render the bacon fat: Before adding the bacon to the skillet, cook it over medium heat until the fat is rendered. This will help to prevent the bacon from sticking to the pan and will also add flavor to the dish.
- Use shallots for a more flavorful dish: Shallots have a milder flavor than onions, but they add a lot of depth of flavor to the dish. If you don't have shallots, you can use a small onion instead.
- Season the dish to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Conclusion:
Green bean bacon shallot sauté is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a simple dish to make, but it is packed with flavor. The green beans are tender-crisp, the bacon is smoky and crispy, and the shallots add a subtle sweetness. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
