Tired of ho-hum side dishes?  This simple side has only 5 ingredients and will brighten up any meal.  Cooking fresh green beans with chicken broth and garlic gives them a wonderful flavor, while almonds add a delicious crunch.  

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound green beans, trimmed (about 4 1/2 cups)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Swanson® Chicken Broth or Organic 100% Natural Chicken Broth or Natural Goodness Lower Sodium Chicken Broth
  • 1/4 cup toasted sliced or slivered almonds (optional)

Instructions

  • Step 1

    Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over high heat.  Add the green beans and cook for 4 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally.

  • Step 2

    Add the garlic to the skillet and cook and stir for 1 minute.  Add the broth and heat to a boil, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.  Reduce the heat to medium-high.  Cook for 3 minutes or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.  Season to taste.  Sprinkle with the almonds, if desired.
