"I created this recipe for someone who loves everything spicy. Now this has become a family favorite. Serve hot, cold, or at room temperature. These green beans are delicious!" — carina

Directions

Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until bacon is crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat from the skillet, discarding the rest. Return the reserved bacon fat to the skillet and heat. Cook and stir the onion, garlic, and chipotle pepper in the heated bacon fat until the garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the adobo sauce and tomatoes; cook another 2 minutes. Stir in the green beans, water, honey, seasoned salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover the pan, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the green beans are tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
Crumble the bacon. Sprinkle the bacon pieces and lemon juice over the green beans. Serve immediately.

These were absolutely delicious! I have been looking for a great green bean recipe for a while now and this is perfect! The only change I made, which I hate to do, was change out chicken stock with soy sauce for the tomatoes and water. My husband hate tomatoes ;-(..... but it was absolutely perfect!

Fantastic side dish for any occasion. I used this for Easter and it was perfect with the spiral ham. The only thing I added was a sprinkle 1/2 - 3/4 cup Pepitas. (hulled pumpkin seeds, I toasted them in a skillet) when toasted, they compliment bacon really well. Everyone loved this dish!
