These soy sauce glazed green beans are savory, slightly sweet, and smoky from the bacon. Topped with nutty sesame seeds and scallions for a stunning side dish for the holidays or any meal.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the green beans until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
In the meantime, heat a large skillet on medium heat and cook the bacon until crisp. Set the bacon aside and leave the grease in the pan.
Add in the onions and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add in the drained green beans, brown sugar, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, black pepper and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
