A hearty and flavorful dish combining tender green beans, creamy potatoes, and savory ham, perfect for a comforting meal.
Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Using unsalted butter allows you to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the ham and onion to the pot and cook until the onion is tender and the ham is lightly browned.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Stir in the green beans, potatoes, salt, pepper, chicken broth, thyme, and parsley.
Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
Check the potatoes with a fork to ensure they are cooked through.
Serve the dish warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
Pair with a slice of crusty bread for a complete meal.
