A side dish of finely chopped green beans is much easier to eat with a spoon as a standalone dish. Fried bacon adds a rich flavor and a nice crunch to the texture. Adding lemon zest and chives at the end will enhance the flavor. For this dish, choose leaner bacon with thicker meat layers to ensure a lighter texture.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon, stirring, until browned and the fat has rendered, about 4 minutes. Add the green beans and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the beans are bright green. Add 2 tablespoons of water and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the beans are crisp-tender, about 6 minutes.
Transfer the beans to a serving platter and stir in the chives. Grate the lemon zest directly over the beans, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
