Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb. fresh green beans, washed & trimmed
  • ½ red bell pepper
  • ½ small yellow onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • ¾ cup chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon low sodium soy sauce

Instructions
 

  • Start by washing and trimming the green beans. I like to cut a tiny bit off on each end of the green beans. Next dice the red bell pepper and onion and mince the garlic cloves.
  • In a large skillet on medium heat add the olive oil & butter. Sauté the red bell peppers and onion for 2-3 minutes. Next add the minced garlic and sauté an additional 30 seconds. 
  • Now add fresh green beans and sauté for 2 minutes. The green beans will start to brighten in color.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and season the green beans with salt and black pepper. Stir well, cover and simmer on medium-low heat for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, add the soy sauce, stir and finish cooking for 5 more minutes uncovered.
  • Once the green beans are tender to your liking and most of the chicken broth has been absorbed, turn off the heat, serve and enjoy!
