Ingredients:
1/2 tablespoon(s) butter |
1 cube(s) chicken bouilllon |
1 pound(s) frozen baby lima beans |
1/4 teaspoon(s) ground black pepper |
2 cup(s) water |
Directions:
1. Place the water, bouillon cube, and butter in 2-quart pot with a lid. Cover, place over high heat, and bring the liquid to a boil. Remove the lid, and add the frozen lima beans. Recover and bring back to a boil, about 5 minutes.
2. Uncover the pot, reduce the heat to medium-high, and maintain a moderate boil for 20 minutes, until the beans are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir frequently. If the liquid evaporates too quickly, add additional water, 1/2 cup at a time, until the full 20 minutes has elapsed. Do not let the water cook out, or the beans will burn. Maintain a level just below the surface of the beans. Season with the black pepper, and serve.
