Italian Broad Beans With Pancetta

Pancetta is an Italian cured marbled bacon. If you can't find Pancetta, use country bacon slices.

Serves 2-4

Ingredients:

• 3 slices of pancetta, cut in bite-size pieces.
• 1/2 medium onion, diced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 pound fresh Italian broad green beans
• 1 cup broth or water

Directions:

Cook the pancetta until just brown. Add the onion and garlic and cook until just soft.

Toss in the beans and cook for 1 minute.

Add the water or broth and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat and simmer 20 minutes.

Serve warm.
