GREEN BEANS AMANDINE



Green Beans Amandine image

This green bean recipe will become your new favorite side dish. Inspired by a classic French recipe (haricots verts amandine), these green beans feature buttery toasted almonds, tender shallot and a squeeze of lemon. Recipe yields 4 generous side servings; you can double the recipe by cooking it in a large Dutch oven.

Categories     Side Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into several pieces
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup thinly sliced shallot (about 1 small)
1 pound haricots verts or slender green beans, trimmed
2 teaspoons lemon juice, to taste
1 tablespoon + ½ cup water, divided
½ teaspoon fine salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Once it's completely melted, add the almonds. Cook, stirring constantly with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon, until the butter has browned and the almonds are beginning to brown, about 7 to 8 minutes. (Your patience will pay off, I promise!)
  • Add the shallot and cook, while stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Stir in the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water. While stirring, cook until the liquid thickens enough that your spatula leaves an open trail on the pan behind it, about 1 more minute.
  • Use your spatula to scoop all the mixture into a bowl, and set it aside for now. Return the empty skillet to the stovetop, and add the green beans, ½ cup water and ½ teaspoon salt. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the beans are nearly tender, about 9 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and cook over medium-high heat until the liquid evaporates, about 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Off the heat, add the reserved almond mixture to the skillet and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve. Leftover green beans will keep the fridge, covered, for about 4 days.

THE BEST GREEN BEANS EVER



The Best Green Beans Ever image

Ree Drummond's Best Green Beans Ever recipe, from The Pioneer Woman on Food Network, starts with bacon grease and gains even more flavor from chicken stock.

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

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.

  • Steam the green beans for 7-9 minutes, just until soft. To accomplish this step, you have three options: 1/ Add the green beans to a steamer pot/basket (I have a pot like this, or use a steamer basket). 2/Fill a pot with about 2 cups of water, bring the water to a boil, add the green beans, and then cover the pot with a lid. The green beans will not be submerged in the water, so the steam will do the work. 3/ Fill the bottom of a pot with water, and bring the water to a boil. Place a large colander over the water, then place the green beans inside, and cover the pot with a lid.
  • Once the green beans are soft, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and transfer the beans to the hot skillet. The garlic will become fragrant thanks to the heat and can easily burn, so work quickly. I use tongs to do this. I also gently shake off any excess water before adding the beans to the skillet. Sauté the green beans in the butter and garlic for about 2 minutes, then add the fresh herbs and salt and pepper to taste.
