Southern Green Beans & Potatoes

1. 1

   In a saucepan that has a tight-fitting lid, melt butter or cook bacon on medium heat. Remove bacon when finished cooking (if you're are using it) and set it aside.

2. 2

   Add sliced onion & minced garlic to butter or bacon fat. Saute until onions are clear. Be sure to stir often. If you are using bacon, scrape the bottom of the pan to get the bacon bits up and prevent burning.

3. 3

   Add chicken broth & bring to a boil. Scrape the bottom of the pan again if you are using bacon to avoid a burnt flavor.

4. 4

   Add quartered potatoes & creole seasoning. Place potatoes flesh side down & cover the pan with a lid. Cook for 15 minutes. Do not uncover pan during this time.

5. 5

   Stir potatoes after 15 minutes. Add green beans to the top of the pan. Gently push them down between potatoes but do not immerse them in the liquid. Cover with lid again & cook for 10 more minutes. (Note: If you are using frozen green beans, it may take 5 extra minutes to cook because of the decrease in temperature.).

6. 6

   Chop cooked bacon & add to the top of your vegetables (if using bacon) & serve.
