📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 400˚F. Place a rack on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment and lightly coat it with nonstick spray.
2
In a shallow dish, combine the brown sugar, cayenne, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Coat the bacon pieces in the mixture, pressing lightly on both sides so it adheres.
3
Arrange the bacon on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the bacon is golden and almost cooked through but still pliable, 10 to ⏱️ 12 minutes. Let sit until cool enough to handle, 5 to ⏱️ 8 minutes.
4
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Cook the green beans until crisp-tender, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Immediately transfer the beans to the ice bath. Once cooled, drain well and pat dry.
5
In a medium bowl, toss the beans with the olive oil, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Divide the green beans into 10 bunches (about 8 to 10 beans each). Wrap a bacon piece around the middle of each bunch and place seam-side down on the prepared rack.
6
Roast the bundles until the green beans are tender and the bacon is crispy and caramelized, 12 to ⏱️ 15 minutes.
