GREEN BEANS WITH ALMONDS AND CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Place the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over low heat, and cook and stir constantly until the almonds are lightly toasted, 3 to 5 minutes. Watch carefully, because they burn easily. Remove the almonds and set aside.
• Heat butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the shallots and red bell pepper until softened, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle the shallot mixture with sugar, salt, and pepper, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the shallots caramelize, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan, fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer, and bring the water to a boil. Add the green beans, cover, and steam until just tender enough to pierce with a fork, 7 to 8 minutes. Drain the green beans, place them into the skillet with the shallot mixture, mix well, and gently stir in the toasted almonds.

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS WITH GARLIC AND PEPPER

Steps:

• Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the green beans, then season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
• Add the stock, then bring to a simmer and cover the skillet. Cook until the green beans are bright green and just slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Uncover the skillet and cook until the liquid evaporates and the green beans are tender, 10 minutes more. Stir in the lemon juice and remaining tablespoon butter and season with additional salt and pepper.

ROASTED GREEN BEANS AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place green beans in a large bowl. Mix in shallots, garlic, and almonds. Drizzle olive oil over the top; sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on top. Toss until everything is evenly coated with oil. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until beans are slightly shriveled and shallots are lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

SMASHED GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, orange juice, vinegar, salt, fish sauce, sugar, and red pepper flakes in a large bowl to combine. Transfer 2 Tbsp. dressing to a small bowl; set aside for serving.
• Working in 2 batches, place green beans in a large resealable plastic or silicone bag. Seal bag and whack beans with a rolling pin to split the skins, break beans into smaller pieces, and soften the insides without completely pulverizing them. Transfer beans to large bowl with dressing. Add onion and toss, massaging with your hands to break beans down further and coat. Let sit at room temperature at least 1 hour or chill overnight.
• Using your hands, lift beans out of bowl and transfer to a platter, leaving excess liquid behind. Whisk oil and reserved 2 Tbsp. dressing to combine, then drizzle over beans. Gently mix in peanuts. Top with shallots.

GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS AND RED BELL PEPPER

Steps:

• Cook beans in boiling water to cover in a Dutch oven 3 to 4 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain.

GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of cold water to a boil over high heat and salt it generously. Trim the stem end off the green beans. Peel and finely chop the shallot.
• Drop the green beans into the boiling water and cook, uncovered, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain in a colander set in the sink and rinse with very cold water until cool. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels. (The vegetables can be prepared up to this point, up to 4 hours ahead.)
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is just golden, about 2 minutes. Add the green beans, increase the heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through, about 4 minutes. Season with the 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper and serve immediately.

BLISTERED GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS AND PISTACHIOS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large wok or saucepan set over high, adding more as needed to cover the bottom. Once the oil is hot, add the shallots and season with salt. Cook until shallots turn golden brown and slightly crisp, about 4 to 6 minutes. (Watch them carefully, and pull them from the pan when just golden, or they will taste very bitter.) Using a slotted spoon, transfer the shallots to a medium bowl.
• In the same wok, heat 1 tablespoon oil over high. Fry the garlic and pistachios, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and the pistachios are light brown, about 30 to 45 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to the bowl with the shallots.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the wok and reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the green beans and season with salt. Stir-fry until they blister, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add the soy sauce to the green beans and remove from heat. Add lime juice and black pepper and fold to coat.
• Transfer the green beans to a serving bowl or plate. Garnish with the fried shallots, garlic and pistachios. Serve immediately.

Add green beans and bell pepper to skillet. Toss vegetables over medium-high heat until coated with drippings, about 1 minute. Add broth. Cover and cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to serving bowl. Sprinkle with bacon and serve.
