Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs olive oil
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • 1 pound green beans, ends trimmed
  • 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/4 tsp minced fresh thyme

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a 12" skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the shallot and cook until golden, about 5 minutes.

  2. Add the beans and broth. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender but still offer some resistance to the bite, 15-20 minutes.

  3. Sprinkle with the thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste.
