Instructions

  • Chop bacon and cook in a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat 8 minutes, stirring often, until crisp.
    Meanwhile, cut off stem end of green beans. Cut beans into 1-inch pieces or French them by cutting them in half lengthwise.

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Drain bacon on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons drippings in the skillet.
  • Cook mushrooms in drippings over medium-high heat until browned. Add cream cheese, breaking it up into pieces with a wooden spoon. Heat over medium heat, stirring until cheese is melted. Gradually stir in chicken broth-it works best with a whisk. Stir in soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add green beans (with 2 tablespoons liquid) and cooked bacon; gently stir until coated.
    Spoon green bean mixture into a greased 8x8-inch or 9x9 square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, then crushed pork rinds. Bake for 25 minutes or until bubbly.
