This comforting dish combines tender green beans and red potatoes, enhanced by crispy bacon and Ranch seasoning, creating a savory side dish perfect for family gatherings.
In a large skillet, heat the bacon grease and butter over medium-high heat until melted.
Add the diced potatoes and allow them to cook for about 7 minutes, turning occasionally for uniform browning.
Next, incorporate the diced onion into the skillet and continue to cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Stir in the green beans, crumbled bacon, Ranch seasoning, black pepper, and Tabasco sauce if using. Combine thoroughly and let warm for a few minutes before serving.
