Green Beans with Smokey Bacon Vinaigrette Recipe

Make an ice bath by filling a large pot with ice and water; set aside.

Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans in the boiling water until slightly tender yet crisp about 3 minutes; drain. Immediately plunge the green beans into the ice bath to stop them from cooking further. Drain and set aside.

Cook the bacon in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to brown about 5 minutes. Add the onions to the bacon and continue cooking until the onions begin to caramelize and turn golden brown 7 to 10 minutes. Add the green beans red wine vinegar and sugar; cook and stir until the sugar is dissolved 2 to 3 minutes.
