Green Beans With Cilantro Food

MARINATED GREEN BEANS WITH CILANTRO AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Place minced garlic and chopped cilantro in a large bowl and set aside.
• Bring water to a boil and plunge in green beans. Cook just until tender, about 5-10 minutes, do not overcook. Drain well and place beans back in hot pan, turn on stove burner and shake for 30 seconds to dry the beans out. Pour hot beans in the bowl with the garlic and cilantro mixture and stir briefly, then let sit untouched for ten full minutes. Add olive oil, toss and place in refrigerator overnight or for at least 4 hours.
• Before you are ready to serve, remove beans from refrigeration and let sit for 45 minutes at room temperature. Add lemon juice, vinegar and pepper. Toss, taste for seasoning and serve.

CILANTRO-CRUSTED ARCTIC CHAR WITH GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and set a rack 2 inches from the heat.
• Toss the beans with the oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Place them on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Broil the beans until crisp tender and charred in places, about 4 minutes.
• Stir together the cilantro stems and mayonnaise. Sprinkle each fillet with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper, and then divide the cilantro mixture among the fillets, spreading to cover. Place the fillets over the beans and continue to broil until the fish is just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Garnish with the chopped cilantro before serving.

GREEN BEANS WITH CORIANDER AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Cook the beans in the boiling salted water in a large covered saucepan over moderate heat 10 to 12 minutes until tender. Meanwhile, place the garlic and coriander in a large heat-proof bowl. As soon as the beans are done, drain well, return to moderate heat, and shake the pan 30 to 40 seconds to drive off all excess moisture. Dump the hot beans on top of the garlic and coriander and let stand 10 minutes. Add 5 tablespoons of the olive oil and toss well to mix; cover and marinate in the refrigerator 3 to 4 hours or, better yet, overnight.
• About 45 minutes before serving, bring the beans from the refrigerator and let stand, still covered, on the counter. Just before serving, add the lemon juice, 3 tablespoons of the vinegar, and the pepper. Toss well, taste, and add more vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper, if needed. Serve as an accompaniment to pork, poultry, veal, or beef.
