Steps:
- Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add in 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil and garlic, saute for 30 seconds or until garlic is fragrant. Immediately add in green beans; stir frequently until beans are slightly golden brown, about 5-8 minutes.
- While the beans are cooking, make the sauce: In a medium bowl, add soy sauce, sesame oil, peanut butter, ginger, vinegar, red pepper flakes and water. Stir to combine.
- One green beans are cooked and slightly golden and al dente, reduce heat to low and pour sauce over the beans. Stir to coat the beans, then cover and simmer for a few minutes to allow the beans to continue cooking.
- Taste and add salt, if necessary. Garnish with sliced green onion, sesame seeds and a tablespoon or two of cashews.
SOY GLAZED GREEN BEANS
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add the green beans and blanch until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking, and then remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels or a cooling rack to drain.
- In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the canola oil and butter. When the butter is melted, add the garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the green beans, soy sauce, sesame seeds, and black pepper and saute until the sauce reduces slightly and thoroughly coats the green beans, being careful not to overcook beans.
- Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot.
SPICY GARLIC-SESAME GREEN BEANS
These Asian-inspired green beans have a hint of heat and come together in mere minutes. These will come out al dente; if you prefer your beans softer, cook for an extra 2 minutes before adding in the sauce.
