LEMONY GREEN BEANS

Categories     side-dish

Time 10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound thin green beans
2 tablespoons butter
Freshly squeezed lemon juice, to taste
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Snap off the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife.
  • Heat a pan over a medium heat and add the butter. (It helps to use a pan with a light-colored bottom so you can keep track of the color.) Swirl the pan occasionally to be sure the butter is cooking evenly. As the butter melts, it will begin to foam. The color will progress from lemony-yellow to golden-tan to, finally, a toasty-brown.
  • Once you smell that nutty aroma, add the green beans and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add some lemon juice and salt and pepper, then transfer to a platter in batches with tongs.

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans
2 tablespoons bacon grease (can substitute 2 tablespoons butter)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large onion, chopped
1 cup chicken broth, plus more if needed
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt (can substitute regular table salt, use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon)
Ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Snap the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife if you'd prefer.
  • Melt the bacon grease in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a minute. Then add the green beans and cook until the beans turn bright green, about a minute. Add the chicken broth, chopped red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Turn the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid, leaving the lid cracked to allow steam to escape. Cook until the liquid evaporates and the beans are fairly soft, yet still a bit crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. You can add more chicken broth during the cooking process, but don't be afraid to let it all cook away so the onions and peppers can start to caramelize.

MOODY'S GREEN BEANS



Moody's Green Beans image

These green beans are nice and meaty, with a creamy sauce. My wife doesn't cook and is a little picky. She said she would only eat her mother's green beans so I got her recipe. For a variation on this recipe, mix in 1 cup sour cream with the other ingredients, or sprinkle 1 cup of your favorite shredded cheese over the top near the end of baking time
