Description

Green beans steamed with chicken broth are topped with crumbled turkey bacon and a creamy, butter-free dill hollandaise sauce.

Ingredients

5 slices turkey bacon
1/4 cup Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Stock
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
6 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 cups Swanson® Chicken Broth
2 pounds fresh whole green beans, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1 Place turkey bacon in a skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Cook to desired crispness, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Chop bacon into small pieces.
2 Mix Swanson® Chicken Stock, cream, lemon juice, minced garlic, and dill in a microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH for 1 minute, 30 seconds.
3 Place water in the bottom of a double boiler; water should not touch the bottom of the top pan. Bring water to a boil. Lightly beat egg yolks in the top of the double boiler. Cook, stirring until thickened and egg yolks are about double in volume, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
4 Gradually whisk in stock/cream mixture, whisking until completely combined. Mix thoroughly for another minute. Season with 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Remove from heat and cover to keep sauce warm.
5 Set a steamer basket insert into a large saucepan. Pour in Swanson® Chicken Broth to just below the bottom of the steamer; bring to a boil. Add green beans, season with 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and steam until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Discard leftover chicken broth or reserve for another use.
6 Transfer beans to a serving dish; sprinkle with bacon crumbles. Top with hollandaise sauce and serve.
