Provided by Divas Can Cook

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 lbs fresh green beans (washed)
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup white onions (diced)
2 tablespoons garlic (minced)
2-4 cups chicken broth (I use 3 1/3)
1-2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 smoked turkey leg (fully cooked)
salt & black pepper (if needed.)

Steps:

Snap the ends off the green beans and then snap the beans in half. (discard the ends) Set aside.
In a large deep skillet or pot, melt butter over medium heat.
Saute onions until tender.
Add garlic and saute until fragrant and golden.
Add chicken broth, red pepper flakes, and turkey leg.
Simmer covered for about 15-20 minutes.
Remove turkey leg, let cool and dice into small pieces. (set aside)
Add the green beans into the pot.
Return the bone and skin to the pot.
Cover and simmer for 2 hours (or longer) or until green beans are tender. (slow and low is the BEST way to cook them)
When green beans are done, taste the broth and add salt and black pepper if needed.
Stir in the chopped turkey leg.
Serve hot.

These are FANTASTIC! This recipe was revised from an old family favorite! My southern roots come through on this one! Either way the beans end up melting in your mouth and the cooked bacon adds more flavor! REALLY tasty! Good for cookouts or to compliment any meal!

SOUTHERN GREEN BEANS, HAM & POTATOES

Southern Green Beans, Ham & Potatoes image

I love homemade ham & green beans with potatoes, served with a skillet of cornbread and sweet tea! For this recipe, I took two "soul-food" recipes I had and combined them to come up with this one. It's just the way I like it. You can adjust the amounts of ingredients to your own taste. If I use ham hocks, I usually only add one or two slices of bacon for added flavor, just because I like bacon flavor. But if I don't have ham hocks, I use 4- 6 slices of bacon.

1 -2 ham hock
1 -6 slice bacon (raw)
