  • Yield: 4 servings

  • Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 strips bacon
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons Karo® Dark Corn Syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons corn starch
