Green beans are a delicious and versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They can be eaten raw, cooked, or pickled. One of the most popular ways to prepare green beans is to cook them with a warm dijon vinaigrette. This dressing is made with olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, shallots, and herbs. It is a light and flavorful dressing that complements the fresh, crisp flavor of the green beans. The best recipe for green beans with warm dijon vinaigrette will depend on your personal preferences, but there are some general tips that can help you create a delicious dish.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk in ¼ cup of the olive oil and lemon zest and set the vinaigrette aside.
- Heat 1½ teaspoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red onion and cook until golden, 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Return the pan to the heat, add the remaining 1½ teaspoons of olive oil, and spread out the beans in a single layer as much as possible. Allow the beans to cook without moving until they begin to blister and start to turn brown in spots. Stir and continue to cook to the desired tenderness, 8 to 10 minutes. Just before turning off the heat, add the onion back to the pan and stir to combine.
- Remove the pan from the heat and pour the vinaigrette directly into the pan. Stir to combine, then let stand for 10 to 15 minutes so the beans can absorb some of the dressing. Serve warm or make ahead and serve as a cold salad.

Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.

- While the beans grill, cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crisp; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings and then stir the mustard, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the skillet until combined.
- Transfer the beans to a servings bowl and pour the warm vinaigrette over top. Toss well, scatter with the cooked bacon and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper.

GREEN BEANS WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE
Grab-and-go offerings of picnicky food are almost universally mediocre and exasperatingly expensive. Resist the temptation to outsource and make your own. This recipe is built to last. You can make it a day or two ahead of time, or leave it out on the counter if you're going to eat these green beans within a few hours of making it.

Steps:
- Blanch green beans in boiling water, then plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking.
- Toss with a vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice and a tiny bit of minced garlic. (To turn this into a main dish, sear some tuna until crusty on the outside, but still raw in the middle. Cut into thick slices or chunks, and toss with the green beans and dressing.)
Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
- Trim the beans before cooking. Remove the tough ends of the beans.
- Cook the beans in boiling water for 3-5 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crunchy. Do not overcook the beans, or they will become mushy.
- Make the vinaigrette while the beans are cooking. This will allow the flavors to meld.
- Toss the beans with the vinaigrette while they are still warm. This will help the vinaigrette to evenly coat the beans.
- Serve the beans immediately, or chill them for later.
Conclusion:
Green beans with warm Dijon vinaigrette is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The beans are tender and flavorful, and the vinaigrette adds a bright and tangy flavor. This dish is also very versatile and can be served as a side dish or a main course.
