Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb green beans trim both ends
- 1 lb potatoes peeled and diced into 1-2” pieces
- 2-3 whole garlic cloves finely chopped
- 2 teaspoon cooking oil
- 2 tablespoon water or use chicken broth
- salt and pepper
Optional
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin oil oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet on medium heat.
- Add diced potatoes and roast them for 5 min to get a nice brown crust.
- Then add green beans and garlic, salt and pepper; mix well.
- Add water, cover the skillet, and cook the mixture for about 10-12 min or until the beans and potatoes are tender.
- Before serving, drizzle some extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Serve warm.
Notes
- Potatoes take a little longer to cook. Therefore, roasting them for some time before adding the beans will help to cook them perfectly. Also, this way, potatoes develop a roasted crust and taste delicious.
- Also, stir the beans and potatoes every 3-4 min while cooking to avoid burning them. If needed, drizzle some water.
- Add a generous amount of seasonings, like salt and black pepper, to make the dish flavorful. You can also add some Italian seasoning blend or rosemary (fresh or dried) for more flavors.
- Any type of potatoes will work in this recipe. However, most of the time, I use russet and butter potatoes.
