GREEN BEANS ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Put green beans on a sheet of aluminum foil large enough to fold and seal. You may need to fold two sheets together.
• Note: I also use one sheet of foil to set the pouch on. This way if any liquid seeps out or it pulls apart it doesn't leave a mess.
• Drizzle olive oil over the beans.
• Add minced garlic and crushed red pepper, salt and pepper to taste.
• Toss green beans with tongs until well coated.
• Add water and fold aluminum foil together at the top and pinch the sides closed.
• Cook green bean pouch on the grill.
• Notes: When I put my main dish on the grill I open the beans and toss with tongs. If all the water is gone, add a little more, reseal and move to top rack. If I lift the grill lid to flip main dish I usually give the pouch a shake.
