Ingredients
- 2oz (50g) Pancetta (about 6-8 very thin slices)
- 16oz (450g) Green beans, frozen
- 2 tbsp Dark soy sauce
- 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 3 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- ½ tsp Salt* or to taste
- ⅛ tsp Black pepper or to taste
- Chili flakes, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Heat up a skillet to medium/high heat. Cut the pancetta into small pieces, however big or small you like them to be. Add to the skillet and fry until desired consistency is reached, about 5 minutes.
- Remove bacon from skillet and place on a paper towel to soak up the extra fat. Remove extra fat from the skillet, if there is a lot. Then add the green beans. Sauté the beans until they are warmed through.
- Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, butter, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and black pepper. Still everything to combine.
- Keep stirring until the sugar is melted and the sauce is thickened and coats everything well.
- Remove from heat and serve.
Notes
* If you are using bacon instead of Pancetta, omit the salt or only add after tasting as Pancetta is not as salty as bacon.
