Tired of salad and steamed broccoli? Then this slightly sweet onion and green bean side dish will be a welcome addition to your repertoire. The combination of pearl onion, dill and green beans make this dish a hit. This dish will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Frozen pearl onions come pre-peel, which makes preparation time even faster. This makes a quick weeknight supper served with baked chicken or ham.
