Preparation
Drain green beans and set aside.
Broth Mixture: Mix broth, butter, sugar, peppers and salt until well incorporated. Set aside.
Preheat a deep pan over medium-high heat. Cook the bacon pieces down till they’re brick red, add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, add some chopped garlic then add the broth mixture, let the broth simmer for 20 minutes then add the green beans to the broth mixture. Stir to incorporate. Bring mixture to a boil and then turn off heat. You don’t boil or simmer the green beans for long, just enough to heat through, this is important so that you don’t overcook them.
TIP: They are best made a day in advance to absorb the broth.
