  1. Combine green beans and cider in a microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap. Cook in microwave on high for 5 minutes, stir beans. Return to oven and cook until tender, 5 more minutes. Remove beans with a slotted spoon and transfer to a serving bowl, reserve cider.

  2. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat, cook and stir bacon bits and onion in the hot oil until onion is tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour cider from green beans into the skillet, simmer until liquid is reduced, 5 minutes.

  3. Spoon bacon mixture over green beans. Season with salt and black pepper.

Recipe Note

I prepared this for Thanksgiving dinner in place of the traditional but heavy green bean casserole. It has a delicious, faintly sweet flavor.
