Green Beans With Bacon And Onions - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 lbs fresh green beans, stem ends removed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped
8 slices pepper bacon, chopped
2 quarts chicken stock
salt and pepper

Preparation

In a large heavy pot or Dutch Oven add the olive oil and butter.
Heat to medium high.
Add the onions and bacon.
Cook until the onions are soft and browning lightly, about 8 minutes.
Add the green beans and chicken stock.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring a few times until green beans are soft, about 30 minutes.
Your liquid should be cooked down, giving the green beans a \"glazed\" look, or coating if you will.
Salt and pepper to taste.
