GREEN BEANS WITH DILL
Steamed green beans served with a button of butter make for a perfectly acceptable side dish, but if you're looking to elevate the green bean to company-worthy status (with almost no more effort), here's your recipe. Just blanch the beans for a few minutes, toss with butter, chopped fresh dill and a grind or two of black pepper.

ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH DILL VINAIGRETTE
This recipe is irresistible! I have had this and only this for dinner on several occasions. Enjoy! Save time by purchasing beans already trimmed. I usually double the recipe as the beans do shrink a bit when roasted.

Steps:
- Combine vinegar and shallots in heavy small saucepan. Boil over medium heat until most vinegar is absorbed (about 1 tablespoon liquid should remain in pan), stirring frequently, about 6 minutes. Transfer mixture to small bowl; cool completely. Add butter; mix with fork until blended.
- Cook beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Drain. Refresh under cold water; drain. Pat dry with paper towels. (Balsamic-shallot butter and beans can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill.)
- Combine beans and balsamic-shallot butter in large nonstick skillet. Toss over medium heat until beans are heated through, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
Tips:
- Choose fresh green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and crisp. Avoid beans that are wilted or have brown spots.
- Trim the green beans: Trim the ends of the green beans before cooking. You can also remove the strings from the beans if desired.
- Blanch the green beans: Blanching the green beans helps to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, 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. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Make the balsamic Dijon dressing: While the green beans are blanching, make the balsamic Dijon dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Roast the green beans: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the blanched green beans with the balsamic Dijon dressing. Spread the beans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast the beans for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- Serve the green beans: Serve the roasted green beans immediately, garnished with fresh dill. You can also store the beans in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Green beans with balsamic Dijon and dill is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are roasted until tender and slightly browned, and the balsamic Dijon dressing adds a tangy and flavorful touch. The fresh dill adds a bright and herbaceous flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends!
