SAUTEED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until browned on one side, then turn over to cook on the other side. Add the almonds to the skillet at this time, and cook, stirring until light golden brown.

PAN-FRIED GREEN BEANS AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• Set a deep skillet over medium heat and fill halfway with vegetable oil. When it's hot but not smoking, add the almonds and fry until just golden and fragrant, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, remove them to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Working in 2 or 3 batches, add the green beans to the oil and fry until tender and browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the green beans with a slotted spoon, drain on a paper towel-lined plate, and then transfer to a serving plate.
• Carefully drain the frying oil from the skillet and add the olive oil. Place the skillet over medium heat, add the garlic, and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the coriander and black pepper, season with salt, and warm everything until you smell the coriander toasting, about 1 minute. Turn the heat off, add the reserved almonds, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the mixture over the green beans and serve with lemon wedges.

SAUTéED GREEN BEANS WITH BACON, MUSHROOMS & ALMONDS

Steps:

• Cut the tail ends off the green beans, wash and set aside.
• Preheat a large, deep frying pan to medium-high heat and melt the butter (or another cooking fat of choice). Add the bacon and cook for 1 minute until it starts to brown slightly. Add the mushrooms, stir and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add a splash of olive oil as the cooking fat starts to absorb into the mushrooms. Cook for 2 more minutes or until the mushrooms start to brown up a little.
• Add chopped bacon, cranberries, garlic and sage and cook, stirring a few times, for 3-4 minutes until everything starts to brown slightly. Finish by adding a tablespoon of Balsamic vinegar, stir through and transfer to a bowl.
• Return the empty frying pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and green beans; spread them around evenly. Cover with a lid and cook for 2 minutes. Uncover, stir and pop the lid back on for another 1-2 minutes. This method allows you to steam the green beans as well as browning them slightly on the bottom.
• Uncover again and now season with salt and pepper and add the orange juice. Stir and cover with a lid again for 2 more minutes. The green beans will continue to saute and steam with the orange juice reducing slightly.
• Finish the dish by removing the lid and stirring in the pre-cooked bacon and mushroom mixture. Season with another pinch of salt and pepper (taste to see if you need more). Serve with fried shallots and toasted almonds on top. You can serve as is as well.

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.

Remove almonds from skillet and set aside. In the same pot add green beans, 1/3 cup water, 2 teaspoons butter, and salt, and cover.

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS WITH GARLIC AND ALMONDS

SAUTéED FROZEN GREEN BEANS WITH BACON AND SLIVERED ALMONDS

Steps:

• Start by cooking bacon in a large skillet or frying pan on medium heat. Place cooked bacon on paper towels and set aside. Once cool, crumble bacon.
• Add green beans to the pan with all that glorious bacon grease. Stir to coat all the green beans. Continue to stir every couple of minutes or so. This will insure all the green beans are cooking evenly and are all coated in grease.
• Mince fresh garlic while waiting on green beans to cook.
• Cook green beans for 5-10 minutes for frozen green beans and 15-20 for fresh, until green beans are soft but have a slight bite and are a bit charred in places.
• Add in the minced garlic and cook for one minute. I like to push the green beans aside before throwing the garlic. This allows the garlic to cook on the pan surface instead of being stuck on top of green beans.
• Throw the slivered almonds and bacon crumbles in with the garlic and continue to sauté for another 2 minutes. Make sure the garlic and almonds don't burn.
• Lightly Salt and then give everything a good last minute stir so that the bacon, garlic, and almonds get distributed. Serve and enjoy!

GREEN BEANS ALMONDINE WITH BACON

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until done but not crisp. Remove the bacon to drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 teaspoons of the bacon fat in the pan and discard the rest. Chop or break bacon into small pieces.
• While the bacon is cooking, steam the prepared green beans using a steamer or steamer basket, until almost fully cooked 3-4 minutes (taste to test). Note: they will complete cooking when sautéed and to retain firmness they should not steam until fully done. Remove beans from the steamer.
• Over medium-high heat add the diced shallots to the skillet with the bacon fat and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the green beans and sauté to coat and heat through. Toss in bacon and sliced almonds; remove from heat and serve immediately.

• Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and sprinkle the almonds.
• Serve while still warm.

• Add oil to the pan; heat over medium-high heat. Cook shallots until softened, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir in red peppers, garlic, green beans and salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are tender-crisp and beans are hot, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in almonds. Transfer to serving bowl. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve warm.

GREEN BEANS WITH BROWNED BUTTER AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven over medium, toast the almonds, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and fragrant, 5 to 6 minutes. Dump about half of the almonds into a small bowl and reserve for garnish.
