Ingredients

  • 3/4 lb whole fresh green beans, ends cut off
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup Progresso™ unsalted chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)

Steps

  • 1
    Place green beans in medium microwavable bowl with 1 tablespoon water. Cover with plastic wrap, folding back one edge 1/4 inch to vent steam. Microwave on High 5 minutes; let stand 1 minute, then drain.
  • 2
    In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add green beans. Add garlic and salt; toss to coat. Add broth; boil 4 to 6 minutes or until liquid is almost gone.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Feel free to use a 12-oz package of frozen green beans instead of fresh. Just make as directed on package, then drain and continue with step 2.
  • tip 2
    Want a little tang at the end? Drizzle finished beans with a little balsamic vinegar.
