Everything Seasoned Lima Beans with Bacon

  • Author: Audrey

Ingredients

  • 4 slices bacon
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 tsp everything bagel seasoning
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • to ¼ red pepper flakes – (optional)
  • 16 ounces frozen baby lima beans
  • 1 ½ cups chicken broth or stock


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees, and lay out four bacon strips on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
  2. Bake bacon for 20-25 minutes, until crispy. Then, pour the bacon grease from the foil into a large pot. Break up the bacon into bits and set aside.
  3. To the pot with the bacon grease, add in garlic, onion, and spices, and sauté for about 3 minutes, until fragrant and the onions are beginning to soften.
  4. Then add in lima beans and broth. Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low to simmer.
  5. Cook for 30 minutes, stirring periodically. If needed, add water or more broth. You do not need a lot of liquid, but you don’t want them to burn. So add if necessary. Season with salt if desired.
  6. Cook for another 30 minutes until buttery tender, top with the crumbled bacon bits, and enjoy.
