PORK AND GREEN BEAN STIR-FRY
A picture tells a thousand words and the photograph of this recipe in Southern Living Magazine looks wonderful. Feel free to sub strips of red bell peppers in place of the hot chiles. **The key to this dish is developing a nice char on the green beans. To do so, heat the oil in your skillet until it almost smokes before adding the beans. Let them sear, stirring every 20 - 30 seconds, and they'll take on color.
