Green Beans with a Kick

I love a little heat and wanted a side with my meatloaf, so these green beans came to be with onion, garlic, and tomatoes with green chiles.

Step: 1

Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium-low heat. Add onion and a sprinkle of salt; saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add green beans, tomatoes with their juices, chicken broth, and garlic. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until only 2 to 3 tablespoons of liquid remain, up to 15 minutes. Drizzle remaining olive oil over the top.

The most obvious way to choose a side dish is to look at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and pick something different. When you’re making pasta, make sure for a simple vegetable . Made steak? Go for more light. If you’re want to cooking stir-fry with rice, it must not a best idea to also make a rice salad.

One make sure is also can apply to cooking method . You don’t want to overcommit your oven by making to do list three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the stovetop . But often you can make a dish do more often .
