Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Green Beans
Description
The recipe starts with fresh green beans that are washed, dried, and trimmed before being bundled in small groups of two to three. Each bundle is wrapped tightly with a slice of uncured bacon, ensuring the bacon adheres during cooking. These bundles are arranged single-layer in the air fryer basket and cooked at 380°F for 10 to 15 minutes, allowing the bacon to crisp up while the beans steam slightly inside the wrap.
The result is a combination of tender green beans with a smoky, crispy bacon exterior, offering contrasting textures and flavors. The air fryer method speeds cooking and reduces added fats, producing a less greasy option compared to pan frying or oven baking.
This dish works well as a side alongside grilled or roasted meats or as a savory appetizer. The portion size here is designed for sharing or a small group.
Ingredients
- 30 green beans stalks, fresh
- 12 lices uncured bacon
Instructions
- Wash, pat dry, and trim the ends of the green beans.
- Take about two-three green beans and wrap in bacon tightly around the stalk.
- Arrange seam side down in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook in batches.
- Air fry at 380 F for 10-15 minutes or until the bacon is cooked and crispy.
