Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1/2 pound green string beans (trimmed on the stem end but left whole)
  • 5 small potatoes (baby potatoes, leave whole or cut in half if large, I used Yukon Gold)
  • 1/2 medium red onion, chopped in large pieces
  • 4 bacon slices (each strip cut into four pieces)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon chicken seasoning granules
  • 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Salt to taste (if needed)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In large dutch oven or covered skillet fry bacon until it has rendered most of its fat and has begun to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.

  • Step 2: Remove all but about a tablespoon of the bacon grease or use olive oil to make this healthier. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  • Step 3: Add the green beans and potatoes and enough water to almost cover them. Add the chicken seasoning and worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then cover the pan and simmer until the beans are very tender, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding more water if necessary.
