Fried Green Beans are absolutely mouthwatering and a super easy 4-ingredient recipe! This is our favorite way to make green beans as they're fried in bacon drippings with onions and use Tony's Creole Seasoning. Perfect side dish for any occasion including holidays like Mother's Day or Father's Day. Gluten free.
1tsp.Tony's Creole Seasoningor to taste (see note below)
Canned new potatoes, drained(if desired, see note below)
Instructions
After frying the bacon strips in a heavy skillet, put the green beans and onion in the bacon drippings and fry slowly.
Do not add liquid.
Just set the lid on the pot at an angle where the liquid from the steam drips down into the skillet.
Add seasonings.
Remove from heat when beans are tender and just starting to brown.
Notes
NOTE: If you are using canned green beans, drain the beans and dry them off on paper towels. Fry them on high heat since they are already tender. Add the canned sliced new potatoes at the end of the cooking time.NOTE: I do not use the canned new potatoes.NOTE: Amounts of bacon and green beans are approximate. If you want more bacon or more green beans, add more.NOTE: I sprinkled about ¼ to ½ teaspoon of Tony’s Creole Seasoning on the finished green beans. This is a preference amount. Season to your taste.
