Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices thick bacon 3-4 tablespoons grease reserved
  • 1 large onion (diced)
  • 2 pounds whole green beans (ends trimmed)
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated garlic or garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds baby potatoes halved (can use baking potatoes, red potatoes, or yellow dutch potatoes instead – or a combination!)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Seminole Fire in the Swamp Seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Cook the bacon and drain on a paper towel, reserving the bacon grease. Add the bacon grease to a dutch oven or large pot on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the onion to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
  • Add the green beans, chicken stock, 1 teaspoon granulated garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Stir and cover. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. If desired, add some "Fire in the Swamp" seasoning too.
  • After 30 minutes, sprinkle the green beans with 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic. Arrange the potatoes over the green beans. Dot with butter and sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are fork tender. If desired, add some "Fire in the Swamp" seasoning too.
  • Stir gently and transfer to a serving dish. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it over the green beans and potatoes. Add "Fire in the Swamp" seasoning to taste!

Notes

Bacon is optional but certainly a tasty addition.
Seminole Fire in the Swamp Seasoning is SUPER yummy and now a family favorite to add, it doesn’t have the spice or kick of Tony’s Creole seasoning.
