Delicious, tender with a bed of bacon on top. What more can you ask for? A well-known Southern recipe with an electric pressure cooker twist – a must-try and to keep!
Ingredients
8 Slices Bacon, chopped
1/2 Red Onion, chopped
1 Clove Garlic, minced
6-8 Potatoes Small Yukon Gold, halved
1 Tbsp Butter
2 lbs Haricot Verts Fresh, trimmed (or Green Beans)
3/4 C. Chicken Broth
Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Fresh Parsley, chopped
How to make Instant Pot Green Beans and Potatoes
Step 1: Set the Instant Pot to “Saute” and the timer to 20 minutes. Once the IP is hot, add in the bacon. Cook while occasionally stirring until crisp. When done, transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 2: In the bacon grease, saute the onions and garlic until tender.
Step 3: Add in the potatoes cut-side-down. Cook until golden. If needed, add a drizzle of olive oil.
Step 4: Add the butter to the potatoes.
Step 5: Stir in the green beans.
Step 6: Pour in the chicken broth. Set your IP to “manual” and high pressure. Continue to cook for another 6 minutes.
Step 7: Once done, do a “natural release”, then open the IP lid. To taste, season the green beans and potatoes with salt and pepper, then stir in the bacon.
Step 8: Before serving, garnish with chopped parsley.
Note:
For the leftovers, store them in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days.
