"A nice change to the basic steamed green beans. These are so delicious, with a little kick too! Please don't use canned beans for this - the recipe really requires fresh beans. A nice side dish to serve with, roast chicken, steak, or grilled pork, etc."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Chorizo ... Add the olive oil to a large saute pan and bring to medium heat. Add the chorizo and onions, and saute for 3-5 minutes until you get a little browning on both the the chorizo and the onions.
Step 2
Beans ... Add the beans and chicken broth to the pan and bring to a light boil. Then, reduce the heat to medium low, cover, and simmer until the beans are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Then, remove the cover, add the olives, and increase the heat to medium high; and, cook until all the liquid is gone (another 3-5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper if necessary. But, go easy on the salt, the olives are already salty.
Step 3
Serve and ENJOY! ... It is a very simple recipe; but, a very tasty side dish.
