GREEN BEANS, NEW POTATOES WITH BACON



Green Beans, New Potatoes With Bacon image

This is such great comfort food, and the whole family eats it! Haven't tried it, but might be good with some balsamic vinegar sprinkled on it. It's yummo with my horseradish sauce recipe served on the side too. Might be nice to add a few tablespoons of creole seasoning for a change. Think I might try adding in 6 T brown sugar and 6 T apple cider vinegar for a German switch. Perhaps use a couple cups of diced ham. Cornbread makes a nice accompaniment. Be sure to remove any strings from the beans. I don't recall where I got this recipe, but my mother made something similar.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 slices bacon, diced
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds clean red new potatoes, left whole if tiny OR diced if larger
2 cups vegetable broth
3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt (such as Lawry's)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fresh green beans, washed and trimmed

  • Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon from the pan and set aside on a paper towel to drain.
  • Add the diced onion to the pan, and cook, stirring occasionally until the onions are soft and starting to turn golden brown around the edges, about 5 more minutes.

GREEN BEANS WITH NEW POTATOES



Green Beans With New Potatoes image

This is a Paula Deen recipe, but it is the way I learned to cook beans nearly 50 years ago. Usually I cut my potatoes in half instead of peeling the strip from them because its faster and easier. This makes such good beans that you'll be wiggling like a speckled pup.

Provided by Sandy in Oklahoma

Categories     Pork

Time 1h40m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 lbs fresh green beans
1/4 lb salt pork, sliced
1/4 cup bacon grease
2 cups chicken broth, plus more if needed
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
12 small red potatoes
1 onion, cut into slivers
1/4 cup unsalted butter, sliced
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove the ends from the beans. Snap the beans in 2 pieces, place into a colander, wash, and set aside to drain.
  • Meanwhile, in a large cast iron Dutch oven, lightly brown the salt pork in the bacon grease over medium heat, turning often, for approximately 10 minutes. Toss the green beans into the pot, stirring them with a wooden spoon to coat well with the pork fat. Add the broth, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook over medium-low heat, covered tightly, for approximately 30 minutes, or until the beans are half done.
  • While the beans are cooking, peel a center strip from each new potato with a potato peeler. At the end of 30 minutes, add the potatoes and onion to the beans; add 1/4 cup more broth, if needed. Cook, covered tightly, until the potatoes are tender, approximately 25 to 30 minutes, periodically checking the pot to make sure a small amount of liquid remains. When the potatoes are tender, tilt the lid slightly, off to the side of the pot, and continue to cook until the green beans are wilted, approximately 15 minutes. While cooking, add the butter and season with more pepper if needed.

Tips:

  • Select fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green in color and free of blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or have yellow or brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans: Remove the stem ends of the green beans. You can also trim the strings from the beans if desired, although this is not necessary.
  • Boil the green beans: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crunchy. Drain the beans and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • Pan-fry the bacon: In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until it is crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain it on paper towels. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings in the skillet.
  • Sauté the onions and garlic: Add the onions and garlic to the skillet with the bacon drippings. Cook over medium heat until the onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the green beans and potatoes: Add the green beans and potatoes to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and slightly browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the bacon and parsley: Add the cooked bacon and parsley to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  • Serve immediately: Serve the green beans and potatoes while they are hot.

Conclusion:

This is a simple but flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The green beans and potatoes are cooked to perfection, and the bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor. The dish is also very versatile, and you can easily add other ingredients to it, such as diced tomatoes, corn, or bell peppers. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
