Easy Southern Green Beans Recipe
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, cook the bacon until almost completely browned. Add the onion and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Turn heat to low and add garlic; cook for 30 seconds. Remove the bacon/onion mixture to a bowl using a slotted spoon. Reserve the bacon grease. Do not wash the saucepan.

  2. Add the green beans and enough chicken broth to cover the green beans. Add the Cajun seasoning.

  3. Bring to a low boil. Cover and reduce to simmer. Simmer for 1 - 1 ½ hours, stirring occasionally. Drain chicken broth, return bacon/onion mixture, and heat for 1-2 minutes. Add butter, stir, and serve. If needed, season with salt and black pepper to taste.
