Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 large onion, sliced , about 2 cups
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp dry cajun seasoning (i used blacken seasoning)
  • 1 1/2 lbs green beans

Directions:

  1. In skillet, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 7-10 minutes. Add sugar, salt, and Cajun seasoning. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring often, until onion is soft and golden brown, 5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans; cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. (Next time, I will cook longer as mine were not as done as I would have liked them.) Drain well, then add to onion with remaining 1 Tbsp butter. Cook, stirring, until heated through, 1 minute.
