Green Beans With Toasted Almonds Food

GREEN BEANS WITH LEMON AND TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

• In a medium pan, toast almonds over medium heat. Remove from pan and add 1/2 inch water. Bring water to a boil, add beans and cover pan. Reduce heat. Cook beans 4 or 5 minutes until just tender yet still green. Drain beans and return pan to stovetop. Melt butter over moderate heat. Add lemon juice to butter (juice lemon half right side up to keep seeds with lemon, rather than in your beans). Add beans to lemon butter and coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer green beans to dinner plates or serving plate and top with almonds.

AIR FRYER GREEN BEANS WITH GREMOLATA AND TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

• Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 375 degrees F. Toss the green beans, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper in a large bowl until evenly combined. Transfer to the air-fryer basket and air-fry the green beans, tossing halfway through, until tender and blistered in spots, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir the parsley, garlic, lemon zest, 1/8 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper together in a small bowl until combined. Stir in the toasted almonds.
• Place the green beans on a serving platter, top with the gremolata mixture and drizzle lightly with more olive oil.

GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

• Melt 1/2 of the butter on stove, add slivered almonds and continuously stir to toast.
• They are done when their color has changed slightly.
• Remove the almonds.
• Melt the rest of the butter, and saute mushrooms with garlic pepper and other seasonings as you wish.
• Meanwhile, cook green beans (I use frozen, so I cook them in the microwave while I'm sauteing).
• Once the mushrooms are done, turn them down to low until the green beans are done.
• Mix together the green beans, mushrooms, and slivered almonds, reserving a tablespoon or so to sprinkle on the top before serving.

GARLIC-ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F (If you're cooking other things you can use a slightly lower temperature, just increase the time a little.).
• Trim ends from green beans. If using thin, long beans, cut in half crosswise into pieces about 2 inches long. Peel and cut shallots and garlic, then place with beans in plastic bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper, and use a wooden spoon to toss until beans, shallots, and garlic are well coated with oil.
• Spray roasting pan with nonstick spray or mist with olive oil, then arrange the vegetables in a single layer. (I like to cover the pan with foil, then spray the foil for even easier clean-up.) Roast 12-15 minutes for thin beans, or slightly longer for regular beans, until beans are slightly shriveled, and shallots and garlic are lightly browned.
• While beans cook, toss together chopped parsley, chopped almonds and lemon zest. When beans are done, toss hot beans with parsley/lemon/almond mixture and serve immediately.

GREEN BEANS AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans; cook until bright green and tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain in a colander; rinse under cold water, and pat dry.
• Meanwhile, spread nuts in a single layer on a baking sheet; toast in oven until golden brown and fragrant, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
• In a large bowl, toss green beans with oil; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with toasted almonds.

GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS, GARLIC, TOASTED ALMONDS, AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• Fill a 3.5-quart or larger stockpot with water and add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt. Turn heat to medium-high, and while water comes to a boil, start the shallot mixture: In a large sauté pan, melt ghee.
• Once pan is warm, add sliced shallots, garlic, and almonds. Let cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until wilted and dark throughout. Then, lower heat to its lowest possible setting, stir in sugar, and leave mixture alone.
• Meanwhile, once the water has boiled, add trimmed green beans and cook for 4 to 10 minutes, until soft but still crunchy. The beans only need 3 to 5 minutes to cook, but we tend to like our blanched beans a little softer than most people, so we let ours cook even longer; just taste to measure crispness along the way, and stop cooking when the beans are the doneness you like.
• Once beans are cooked, remove with a slotted spoon to the pan of shallots, garlic, and almonds. Toss right in the skillet, and add Pecorino and cranberries, mixing everything to coat.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

GARLIC ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH ALMONDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Place the green beans in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Stir to coat, making sure oil is evenly distributed on the beans. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Spread the green beans across a baking sheet in a single layer. Place the baking sheet in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the beans from the oven and sprinkle the minced garlic and sliced almonds over top of the green beans. Stir to mix together and then spread to a single layer again. Place the baking sheet back in the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes until green beans are cooked through and the garlic and almonds are lightly golden.

This should take about 15 minutes and the shallots should turn golden brown in color.
• Meanwhile, cook the green beans by bringing a saucepan of water with a pinch of sea salt to a boil. Once water is boiling, add in green beans and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the beans are bight green in color and tender crisp.

• The oil and shallots will coat the beans. Add in chopped parsley and lemon juice. Season with sea salt and pepper. Heat for another 3-4 minutes or until beans are warm. Transfer beans to a large dish or platter, top with toasted almonds and serve.
