Provided by darusts

Number Of Ingredients 7

1-1/2 lb. haricots verts (thin French green beans) or green beans, trimmed
1 oz. (2 Tbs.) unsalted butter
2 Tbs. pure olive oil
1/2 cup slivered almonds
1 tsp. minced or pressed garlic (1 medium clove)
1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice (from 1 small lemon)

Add the beans, increase the heat to medium, and cook, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender and lightly browned in some places, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with the almonds, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh green beans: Look for beans that are bright green, crisp, and have no blemishes.
  • Trim the green beans: Remove the ends of the green beans and any tough strings.
  • Blanch the green beans: This will help to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Drain the green beans immediately and rinse with cold water.
  • Sauté the garlic and almonds: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, garlic, and almonds. Cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and the almonds are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the green beans and sauce: Add the blanched green beans, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to the skillet. Toss to coat. Cook until the green beans are heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Serve immediately: Garlic almond green beans are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crisp.
