- Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- Smoked paprika (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse your green beans in cold water and trim the ends.
- Take a handful of green beans (about 5-6) and align them together. Wrap a slice of beef bacon around the bundle, starting from one end and overlapping slightly as you go. Secure the bundle with a toothpick if necessary.
- Place the wrapped bundles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle a little olive oil over the top and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. If you're using any optional seasonings, now's the time to add them!
- Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the green beans are tender but still vibrant green.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve hot as an appetizer or a side dish.
