Tender green beans richly seasoned and slow-cooked for a simple, savory side dish.

# Ingredients:

Vegetables

01 - 1.5 pounds fresh green beans

Seasonings and Fats

02 - 1 to 2 tablespoons melted ghee or butter

03 - 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder

04 - 1.5 teaspoons onion powder

05 - 1 teaspoon paprika

06 - 1 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste

07 - 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper

Liquids (Instant Pot Method Only)

08 - 1 cup water or broth

# Instructions:

01 - Combine green beans, melted ghee or butter, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in the slow cooker. Stir thoroughly to evenly coat the green beans with the seasonings.

02 - Cook on HIGH setting for 2 to 3 hours or on LOW for 4 to 6 hours until green beans are tender.

03 - Pour 1 cup of water or broth into the Instant Pot. Insert the steamer basket and place green beans inside. If no steamer basket is available, add green beans directly to the liquid.

# Notes:

01 - For best texture, avoid overcooking the green beans to retain slight firmness.
