Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Ham (pre-cooked, diced or cubed)
- 1 pound Fresh green beans (trimmed and halved)
- 1.5 pounds Baby red potatoes (halved or quartered)
- 1 large Yellow onion (diced)
- 3 cups Chicken broth
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
Instructions
Begin by preparing your ingredients: dice the ham, trim and halve the green beans, halve or quarter the baby red potatoes, and dice the onion.
In the slow cooker, layer the ingredients in the following order: potatoes on the bottom, followed by the green beans, diced onion, and ham on top.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, minced garlic, melted butter, salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
Pour the seasoned chicken broth mixture evenly over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded together.
About 30 minutes before serving, stir the ingredients gently to distribute the seasoning evenly throughout the dish.
Once done, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm as a complete meal or alongside fresh bread.
