Vibrant veggies elevate this skillet dish to make it truly delicious.
Ingredients:
  • 4 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 1/2 cups Progresso™ chicken broth (from 32-ounce carton)
  • 1 cup dried black-eyed peas, sorted and rinsed
  • 2 medium celery stalks, sliced (1 cup)
  • 1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh savory leaves or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried savory leaves
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 3 medium carrots, thinly sliced (1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeño peppers (2 ounces)
Instructions:
  • In a 10-inch skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until it turns crisp, stirring occasionally. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon and let it drain on paper towels. Discard the fat from the skillet.
  • In a skillet, bring the broth, peas, celery, onion, savory, and garlic to a boil. Let it boil uncovered for 2 minutes, then reduce the heat. Cover and simmer for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until peas are almost tender (avoid boiling to prevent them from bursting).
  • Combine the carrots and bell pepper into the mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer. Allow to cook covered for approximately 13 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables reach desired tenderness. Stir the mixture again. Finish by sprinkling with cheese and bacon.
