Steps:
- Snap the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife if you'd prefer.
- Melt the bacon grease in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a minute. Then add the green beans and cook until the beans turn bright green, about a minute. Add the chicken broth, chopped red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Turn the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid, leaving the lid cracked to allow steam to escape. Cook until the liquid evaporates and the beans are fairly soft, yet still a bit crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. You can add more chicken broth during the cooking process, but don't be afraid to let it all cook away so the onions and peppers can start to caramelize.
PAN FRIED GREEN BEANS
These green beans were the side dish my grandmother served most often because we all love them. They are done but not mushy like canned beans.

Steps:
- In a stainless steel pot over medium-high heat, combine green beans, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, until the beans begin to sweat. Remove lid and stir occasionally until beans are tender.
- When the beans and spices have begun to 'burn' on the bottom of the pan, which will lend a grilled flavor, stir in the olive oil and turn off heat. Cover, and let stand a few minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate the 'burnt' spices. Beans should have a dark, caramel color, but not black.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
- Trim the green beans: Remove the tough ends of the beans before cooking.
- Blanch the green beans: Blanching helps to preserve the beans' color and crispness. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Sauté the green beans: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the blanched green beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are heated through and slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Season the green beans: Add your desired seasonings to the green beans. Some popular options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Serve the green beans: Green beans can be served as a side dish or main course. They are also a great addition to salads, soups, and stews.
