Ingredients
- 12 ounces potatoes any variety
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ medium yellow onion diced
- 8 ounces green beans cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Instructions
- If using Russet potatoes, peel the potatoes. Cut the potatoes into ¾-inch cubes.
- Add the potatoes to a medium saucepan and fill with cold water to 1 inch above the potatoes. Add salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook uncovered for 10 to 12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and almost cooked through.
- While the potatoes are boiling, heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and onions, cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until they begin to soften.
- Drain the potatoes well and add them to the skillet along with the green beans. Add garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes are lightly browned and the beans are tender.
- Stir in the butter and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
