Pressure Cooker Green Beans – Southern Style
These green beans are about to get a serious upgrade from their boring old selves. In just a few minutes, you’ll have a tender, flavorful dish that will be the star of your next meal. Are you ready to get started? Let’s do this!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
- 4 slices of bacon, chopped (because bacon makes everything better)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp salt (or to taste)
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (for a little kick!)
Instructions:
- First things first, place your pressure cooker on the stove and set it to sauté mode. Toss in the chopped bacon and cook until crispy. While that delicious aroma fills your kitchen, you might already feel like a culinary genius!
- Once the bacon is nice and crispy, scoop out those little pieces of happiness and set them aside, leaving the bacon drippings in the pot. Add the diced onion to the pot and sauté until it becomes translucent.
- Now, add in the minced garlic. Ah, the smell is heavenly—seriously, if you could bottle this up and sell it, you’d be a millionaire.
- Next, toss in the fresh green beans, giving everything a good stir to combine those flavors. You’ll want to coat the beans in the leftover bacon flavor because, let’s face it, that’s where the magic happens!
- Pour in the chicken broth, and sprinkle the salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Trust me, it will be worth it. Stir everything for good measure.
- Secure the lid on your pressure cooker, make sure it’s locked and loaded, and set it to cook for about 4 minutes on high pressure. You’ll have time to enjoy that delicious bacon you set aside earlier.
- Once the 4 minutes are up, carefully release the pressure (don’t burn your eyebrows off). Open the lid and let that steam escape, revealing your beautiful green beans!
- Mix in the crispy bacon bits, and there you have it! Serve it hot, and watch it disappear faster than you can say, “Pass the green beans!”
And voila! Your Southern-style green beans are ready to hit the table and make some magical dining moments. Enjoy them as a side or even as the star of your dinner party. Happy cooking!
