Green Beans With Smokey Bacon Vinaigrette - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
    1/2 pound smoked bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    1 yellow onion, sliced thin
    1/3 cup red wine vinegar
    1 tablespoon white sugar
    1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Preparation
    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.
