Greek Lima Beans
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package dried lima beans
  • 2 (16 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes with juice
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
  • sea salt to taste
  • 1 cup water, or as needed
Instructions
1
Begin by submerging lima beans in a large saucepan, filling it with sufficient water to reach two inches above the beans. Allow them to soak for an extended period, preferably 8 hours or overnight.
2
When you're ready to proceed with cooking, preheat your oven to a temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
3
Next, place the saucepan containing beans and water over medium heat and bring it to a rolling boil. Gradually reduce the heat to a lower setting, allowing the mixture to simmer for 20 minutes.
4
Following this, drain the beans and transfer them to a 9x13-inch baking dish. Combine the beans with tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, dill, and salt in a single motion.
5
Finally, bake the mixture in the preheated oven, stirring it occasionally and adding water if necessary to prevent dryness. Continue cooking until the lima beans are tender, taking approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
