I made some Smoked Chicken Thighs and this simple side dish was the perfect pairing.

How to make Garlic Ranch Green Beans

Start by microwaving a 12-ounce bag of trimmed green beans according to the package directions.

While they were in the microwave, I diced a small onion and minced some garlic.

Set a large skillet over medium heat, add some olive oil and the diced onion.

Cook the onion for about 5 minutes, stirring a few times.

Then add the green beans from the bag, some butter, and the minced garlic.

Also about a tablespoon of dry ranch seasoning, I actually went with this Blackstone Parmesan Ranch seasoning blend.

Some kosher salt, pepper, and if you’d like, add some all-purpose seasoning blend of choice as well.

Cook for just another 5 minutes or so, and it’s done.

Seriously, that’s it!
