For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle warmth. Fresh herbs always elevate the dish. Consider using fresh oregano or basil in addition to or instead of parsley. If you prefer a vegetarian option, substitute the beef broth with vegetable broth.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
15 mins
In a large skillet, combine the trimmed green beans, olive oil, minced garlic, sugar, and salt. Cover the skillet and cook over low heat, allowing the beans to gently soften and absorb the aromatic flavors. (Approximately 15 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Pour the beef broth over the green beans, ensuring they are evenly coated. Continue cooking uncovered, allowing the broth to reduce slightly and further tenderize the beans. (Approximately 5 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Increase the heat to medium-high. Gently stir in the drained diced tomatoes and fresh chopped parsley. Continue cooking until the green beans are fully cooked through and tender, and the tomatoes have melded beautifully with the other ingredients. (Approximately 5 minutes)
