This side dish is guaranteed to become a sought-after addition to your culinary repertoire.
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a 9×13-inch baking dish, lay out the drained green beans. Evenly distribute the crispy bacon on top.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, melted butter, soy sauce, and garlic powder until well combined.
Drizzle the flavor mix over the green beans and bacon. Toss gently to ensure all the beans are coated.
Transfer the dish to the oven and bake for 40 minutes. Stir the beans halfway through to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.
Once done, the green beans should have a shiny, sticky glaze. Stir once more before serving to coat them in any remaining sauce in the dish.
