SOY GLAZED GREEN BEANS
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add the green beans and blanch until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking, and then remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels or a cooling rack to drain.
- In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the canola oil and butter. When the butter is melted, add the garlic and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the green beans, soy sauce, sesame seeds, and black pepper and saute until the sauce reduces slightly and thoroughly coats the green beans, being careful not to overcook beans.
- Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot.

EASY YUMMIEST GROUND BEEF AND GREEN BEANS
Disclaimer: This dish is the reason I married my ex husband... If it hadn't been for this then who knows what I'd be doing with my life. LOL. He is actually a wonderful man and despite the fact that it did't work out I do not regret marrying the man (not just because he was a fabulous cook). I have tried many variations of this (and I'll add the extras at the end of the recipe) but the original is actually the very best.

Steps:
- So additions I've tried include one 8 oz can sliced water chestnuts (chopped) and ½ onion chopped and ¼ cup red wine. truly none of these make the original recipe any better but I like to feel I contributed in some way --
- Saute ground beef (if adding water chestnuts and onions also sauté these at the same time) and add green beans when beef is mostly done. Then add the white pepper, soy sauce, (I do a tad less than ½ cup but the recipe won't let me put .38 cups) and balsamic vinegar (and if you're feeling sassy add that red wine too). Cook for 5-10 minutes and then yes my friend you are done (hopefully you've had the foresite to cook rice too) and have a MAGNIFICENT dish to serve your family and or friends -- One that someone, someday may marry you for. Just sayin' it worked on me!
- Truly the original with no additions is absolutely fabulous but for crunch (you texture lovers out there) add the water chestnuts. Otherwise it's perfect in original form but feel free to throw your creative twist on this and let me know what works!

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for grass-fed beef, organic soy sauce, and fresh green beans.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the beef, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the beef from cooking evenly and will make it more difficult to get a good sear.
- Cook the beef in batches: If you are cooking a large amount of beef, cook it in batches. This will help to ensure that the beef is cooked evenly and that it doesn't get overcooked.
- Let the beef rest: After cooking the beef, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to green beans, you can also use other vegetables in this dish, such as broccoli, carrots, or snow peas.
- Serve with rice or noodles: This dish is traditionally served with rice or noodles. However, you can also serve it with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
This easy soy-glazed beef and green beans recipe is a delicious and healthy meal that can be made in under 30 minutes. The beef is tender and flavorful, the green beans are crisp and tender, and the soy glaze is rich and savory. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a casual dinner party.
