Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

½ cup ranch dressing
¼ cup peeled, seeded, and minced cucumber
1 tablespoon whole milk
1 ½ teaspoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon Japanese wasabi powder
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or more to taste
2 cups water
2 cups chicken broth
8 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon whole milk, or more as needed
½ cup plain bread crumbs
½ cup crushed French-fried onions
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
8 cups vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Blend ranch dressing, cucumber, 1 tablespoon milk, horseradish, vinegar, wasabi powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper together in a food processor until dip is smooth. Transfer dip to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
  • Bring water and chicken broth to a boil; add green beans and cook until slightly tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Whisk egg and 1 tablespoon milk together in a bowl. Combine bread crumbs, French-fried onions, 3/4 teaspoon salt, onion powder, black pepper, and garlic powder together in a separate bowl. Place flour in a third bowl.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Press green beans in flour until evenly coated. Dip coated green beans in egg-milk mixture, allowing excess liquid to drip back into bowl. Transfer green beans to bread crumbs mixture and press to coat, shaking off excess. Arrange coated beans in 1 layer on a plate or in a colander.
  • Working in batches, fry coated green beans in the hot oil until crisp, about 1 minute 30 seconds. Transfer green bean fries to a paper towel-lined colander using a slotted spoon. Serve green bean fries with dip.

ALMOST-FAMOUS GREEN BEAN FRIES



Almost-Famous Green Bean Fries image

T.G.I. Friday's doesn't exactly specialize in health food: The mega-chain is famous for bar food like loaded potato skins and Jack Daniel's-glazed chicken wings. So, it's no surprise that when the restaurant added veggies to the appetizer list, they were deep-fried. The dish, Crispy Green Bean Fries, hit the menu in 2006, and customers went crazy. The beans are coated in a garlicky breading, fried and served with cucumber-wasabi ranch dip. They're a top-seller these days, and fans like Karlyn Siegwarth from Pittsburgh have been begging us for the recipe. Reps in Carrollton, TX, wouldn't give it up, so our chefs created this perfect copy.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup ranch dressing
1/2 cup peeled, seeded, chopped cucumber
1 tablespoon horseradish, drained
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
2 teaspoons wasabi powder (found in the spice aisle or with the Asian foods)
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 pound green beans, trimmed
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk
1 cup instant flour (such as Wondra)
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Make the dip: Puree the dressing, cucumber, horseradish, milk, vinegar, wasabi powder, cayenne pepper, and salt to taste in a blender until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Prepare the beans: Fill a large bowl with ice water. Bring the broth to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Add the green beans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove the beans with a slotted spoon and transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking. Let cool in the water, then drain and pat dry.
  • Whisk the egg and milk in a shallow bowl. Put 1/2 cup flour in another shallow bowl. Combine the breadcrumbs, the remaining 1/2 cup flour, the onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt and pepper to taste in another bowl.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss the green beans in the flour and shake off the excess. One at a time, dip the beans in the egg mixture, dredge in the breadcrumb mixture and lay on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze until the coating is set, about 30 minutes.
  • Heat 3 inches oil in a deep pot over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Fry the green beans in batches until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the beans with tongs or a skimmer to a rack or paper towels to drain. Serve with the dip.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans. Cut off the ends of the beans, where the stem and blossom were attached.
  • Soak the green beans in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This will help them to crisp up when they are fried.
  • Coat the green beans in a light layer of cornstarch. This will help them to brown evenly.
  • Fry the green beans in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the beans will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the green bean fries immediately with the cucumber-wasabi dip.

Conclusion:

Green bean fries are a delicious and healthy snack or side dish. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The cucumber-wasabi dip is a refreshing and tangy accompaniment that perfectly complements the green bean fries. So next time you are looking for a healthy and tasty snack, give green bean fries a try. You won't be disappointed!
