Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

Coarse salt and ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 small garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 pounds haricots verts or other thin green beans, trimmed
2 small red onions, quartered through root end (leaving root end attached)

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium-low. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and prepare a large bowl of ice water. In another large bowl, combine 2 tablespoons oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice; set aside.
  • Cook green beans in boiling water until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer immediately to ice-water bath. Drain beans well, pat dry, and add to bowl with dressing. Set aside.
  • Toss onion wedges with remaining tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill until lightly charred, 4 to 6 minutes per side. When cool, trim root end off, and thinly slice onions; add to bowl with green beans, and toss to combine.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover bacon. I always have some leftover after making bacon for breakfast, and this salad is a great way to use it up. It adds a lot of flavor to the salad.

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise, so I use a light vinaigrette dressing instead. It's just as delicious and it's much healthier.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. You can make it a day or two ahead of time and it will still be delicious. This makes it perfect for busy weeknights or for potlucks.

I love how versatile this salad is. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I often add chopped hard-boiled eggs or crumbled feta cheese. You can also use different types of beans, such as black beans or kidney beans.
