Green Beans with Butter and Hot Sauce
Yield: 6 servings
Source: "The Everyday Low-Carb Slow Cooker Cookbook"
Notes: This is one of my signature side dishes.
Do not let the amount of Tabasco scare you - the
beans are not overly spicy, just yummy.
2 Tbsp butter, divided
1 (1 lb) bag frozen
French-cut green beans (no need to thaw)
1/2 tspn black pepper
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp Tabasco sauce (or more, if desired)
In a large skillet, over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon
of the butter. When melted and bubbling, add the green
beans, salt, and pepper; stir.
Continue to cook over medium heat while stirring, until
green beans reach desired doneness (about 8 to 10 minutes).
When done, add remaining butter and Tabasco sauce and stir well.
