Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 6 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.
  • Add the halved potatoes to the skillet and sauté in the bacon grease for about 5-7 minutes until they start to brown.
  • Add the green beans and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Sprinkle the ranch seasoning over the potatoes and green beans. Pour in the chicken broth, cover the skillet, and let everything simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the green beans are cooked through.
  • Stir in the cooked bacon, season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For a quicker version, parboil the potatoes for 5 minutes before sautéing.
  • Use turkey bacon for a lighter option.
  • Add a sprinkle of shredded cheese on top for extra richness.
