Green Beans Grilled in Foil image

While grilling out, we decided to try grilling fresh green beans. After having this, we will never have green beans another way. I use my own mixture of 'silly salt' for this recipe--equal amounts of pepper, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder, but seasoned salt works as well.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK WITH A ROASTED SHALLOT PORT DEMI SAUCE AND GRILLED GARLIC GREEN BEANS



Grilled Hanger Steak with a Roasted Shallot Port Demi Sauce and Grilled Garlic Green Beans image

The hanger steak is a thick strip of meat from the underside of the beef cow. It hangs between the rib and the loin and is part of the diaphragm. It is similar to the skirt steak because it is full of flavor but can become tough if it is not prepared correctly. This can be a really nice cut of meat to serve your family without paying too much for it. I am going to give you detailed instructions on how to do just that. Enjoy!

Provided by Chef Shelley Pogue

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Beef     Steaks

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (6 ounce) hanger steaks - fat and silver skin trimmed
1 ½ tablespoons canola oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup canola oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup water
¼ cup white sugar
4 whole shallots
3 fluid ounces port wine
1 cup demi glace
½ cup butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Lightly cover the steaks with canola oil and season generously with salt and pepper; cover and place in refrigerator until ready to grill.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on about 1/3 of the grill surface.
  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans in the boiling water until heated through yet still firm, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the garlic and 1/4 cup of canola oil to the green beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Stir the water, sugar, and shallots together in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves; cover the pan and bring the mixture to a boil. Drain the liquid and return the shallots to the pan. Add the port wine and demi glace to the saucepan and place over medium heat; cook until the liquid reduces to about half its original volume. Stir the butter into the mixture until it melts. Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt as needed. Keep the saucepan covered until the steaks are prepared.
  • Spread the green beans onto the part of the grill prepared with aluminum foil and allow to finish cooking while grilling the steaks.
  • Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 2 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Allow the steaks to rest 5 minutes before placing onto individual plates. Spoon the sauce over the steaks. Serve the green beans on the side.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided, plus a little to drizzle
2 medium yellow skinned onions, 1 finely chopped, divided, 1 thinly sliced
3 cups chicken stock, divided
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons ground cumin, divided
3 tablespoons fresh thyme, 5 or 6 sprigs, chopped
1 1/2 cups white rice
1 (14-ounce) can black beans
2 pounds flank steak
2 tablespoons grill seasoning blend ( recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick)
1 lime
3 green plantains (they like green bananas and are available in produce department)
Waxed paper
1 small green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, cracked away from skin and finely chopped
1 pound small shrimp, peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped
Salt and pepper
1 lemon
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley leaves
Hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)

Steps:

  • Heat a medium pot over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan, and half of the finely chopped onion. Saute 3 minutes, then season with 2 teaspoons cumin, eyeball the measurement in the palm of your hand, and the thyme leaves. Pour in 2 1/2 cups of chicken stock and raise heat to bring to a boil. Add rice and lower heat to simmer when boil resumes. Cover pot tightly. After 12 minutes, stir in black beans and replace cover. Cook another 6 to 7 minutes. Turn off rice and beans, season with salt and stir to combine then let stand until ready to serve. While rice cooks, make plantains with shrimp and the meat.
  • Preheat a grill pan over high heat. The meat can also be prepared in a hot, large cast iron or nonstick skillet if you do not have a grill pan.
  • Place flank steak in a shallow dish and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil to coat ¿ about 2 tablespoons. Mix grill seasoning with 1 tablespoon cumin, eyeball the measurement in your palm. Add the zest of 1 lime to the grill seasoning and cumin. Rub the mixture over the steak evenly. Wash up and cut lime into wedges and reserve. Place the steak on hot grill or in hot pan and cook 4 to 5 minutes, turn and cook 3 minutes longer. Remove from heat and let juices redistribute 5 minutes.
  • Slit the skins of the plantains from end to end to vent them for microwave cooking. Wrap them each in wax paper, twisting up paper at ends. Microwave the plantains 4 to 5 minutes together or 90 seconds each individually on high.
  • While plantains and steak cook, place a medium nonstick skillet on the heat over a high flame. Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and the sliced onions. Sear the onions up and heat through, but leave a bite to them. Place on a platter and cover with foil to reserve heat. Return pan to stove and reduce heat to between medium high and medium. Add 2 tablespoons extra, 2 turns of the pan, and the remaining finely chopped onion, the bell pepper, garlic and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper and add the zest of 1 lemon. Cook until shrimp are firm and peppers begin to soften, 4 minutes or so. Add the juice of 1/2 lemon, the tomato sauce and parsley. Turn off heat.
  • Peel and mash the steaming hot plantains with remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Season the plantains with salt and pile on platter or dinner plates then top with garlicky shrimp and tomatoes. Very thinly slice the cooked steak on an angle, working against the grain. Squeeze lime juice over the meat and arrange over the cooked sliced onions on serving platter. Fluff up rice and black beans a bit, transfer them to a bowl and pass at table.

GRILLED BRATWURST WITH ROSEMARY-LEMON CANNELLINI BEANS AND GRILLED BREAD



Grilled Bratwurst with Rosemary-Lemon Cannellini Beans and Grilled Bread image

Beans and sausage are a classic combination that I typically have during the winter months. But I wanted to find a way to serve up a lighter version that can be made on a grill during the summer. The grilled bratwurst pairs perfectly with cannellini beans cooked with red onion, rosemary and fresh lemon juice and zest. I serve this dish simply with some grilled bread rubbed with garlic for the perfect summertime meal.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced (about 1 cup sliced)
Kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, 1 minced and 1 whole, skin removed
2 teaspoons finely chopped rosemary
1/4 teaspoon Calabrian chile paste or crushed red pepper flakes
One 15 1/2-ounce can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
4 bratwurst sausages (about 1 to 1 1/4 pounds total)
Four 1/2-inch-thick slices bread (ciabatta, sourdough or French)
Zest of 1 lemon (about 1 packed teaspoon)
2 tablespoons roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat one side of a charcoal or gas grill over medium heat and leave the other side off.
  • Set a small (1 1/2-quart) saucepan on the direct heat (hot) side of the grill. Add 2 tablespoons oil and heat about 1 minute. Add the onion and season with a pinch of salt. Cook the onion until they softened and begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, rosemary and chile paste and cook until very fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in the beans, season with salt, and pour in the broth and lemon juice. Allow the mixture to come to a bare simmer, then move it to the indirect heat (cool) side of the grill. Cook the beans over indirect heat, stirring occasionally, until the broth is reduced to 1/4 to 1/3 cup, about 20 minutes.
  • Lightly grease the bratwurst with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place the sausages on the direct heat side of the grill and cook until deep grill marks appear on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move the sausages over to the indirect heat side of the grill. (It's okay if the beans need to move closer to the direct heat side, just stir more often and remove once the broth is reduced.) Continue grilling the sausages over indirect heat until cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove the sausages from the grill and let rest about 5 minutes.
  • Lightly brush both sides of the bread with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Grill the bread over direct heat until crispy and charred in spots, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove and immediately rub with the whole garlic clove and season with salt.
  • When the beans have finished cooking, stir in the lemon zest, parsley and salt to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and Parmesan. Top the beans with the grilled sausage and grilled bread. Serve immediately.

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup olive oil plus more for drizzling
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram, divided
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
Freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 cup thinly sliced shallot rings
3-4 semi-ripe peaches, halved, pitted

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup olive oil and vegetable oil in a measuring cup. Combine 2 tablespoons marjoram, Dijon mustard, garlic, and vinegar in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk oil mixture into herb mixture until creamy. Season to taste with pepper. Transfer about 1/4 cup dressing to a small bowl; cover and chill.

Transfer beans, remaining 1 tablespoon marjoram, and shallot to a medium bowl; toss with enough reserved dressing to coat and season with salt and pepper.

GRILLED SCALLOPS, ZUCCHINI, AND SCALLIONS WITH WHITE BEANS



Grilled Scallops, Zucchini, and Scallions with White Beans image

Categories     Bean     Backyard BBQ     Scallop     Zucchini     Summer     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Number Of Ingredients 12

eight 10-inch wooden skewers
a 15 1/2-ounce can small white beans
1/2 cup packed fresh cilantro sprigs
1 lemon
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
8 large scallions
2 medium zucchini
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
24 large sea scallops (about 1 1/4 pounds)
2 teaspoons olive oil
Garnish: fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Prepare grill. Soak skewers in warm water 30 minutes.
  • In a colander rinse and drain beans. Chop cilantro. Squeeze 2 tablespoons juice from lemon. In a bowl toss together beans, cilantro, lemon juice, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a saucepan of boiling salted water blanch scallions until barely tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer scallions with tongs to paper towels to drain and season with salt and pepper. Cut zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices using a mandoline or other manual slicer and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a bowl combine kosher salt, cumin, and pepper to taste. Remove tough muscle from side of each scallop if necessary and pat scallops dry. Toss scallops in cumin mixture to coat. Hold 2 skewers parallel to each other and about 1/2 inch apart. Thread 6 scallops onto skewers so flat sides can lie flat on grill. (Each scallop should be pierced by both skewers. This prevents scallops from spinning when turning them over on grill.) Thread remaining scallops onto remaining skewers in same manner. Brush scallops with oil.
  • Grill scallions and zucchini on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until zucchini is tender and scallions are golden, about 1 minute on each side. Grill scallops, turning occasionally, until just cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. (If grilling is out of the question, scallions, zucchini, and scallops-not on skewers-can all be cooked in a large nonstick skillet: Lightly brush skillet with oil and heat over moderately high heat until hot before cooking vegetables and scallops separately.)
  • Toss zucchini with beans and serve topped with scallions and scallops and garnished with cilantro.

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill
2 tablespoons jarred tandoori marinade

GREEK GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GREEN BEANS



Greek Grilled Chicken with Green Beans image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 to 8 ounces each)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds green beans, trimmed
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing and drizzling
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (2 to 3 ounces)

Steps:

  • Cover one side of a grill with a large sheet of foil; fold up the edges to make a rimmed tray. Preheat the grill to medium high. Rub the chicken all over with the garlic powder and oregano; season generously with salt and pepper. Toss the green beans, tomatoes, garlic and olive oil in a large bowl; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
  • Brush the grill grates with olive oil on the side without the foil tray. Place the chicken on the grates and grill, turning halfway through, until marked and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove to a plate. Meanwhile, spread the vegetable mixture on the foil tray and grill, stirring occasionally, until tender and charred in spots, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl; add the vinegar and dill. Season with salt and pepper and toss.
  • Divide the chicken and vegetables among plates. Top the vegetables with the cheese. Drizzle with more olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: Fresh, firm beans with no blemishes or bruises are best for grilling. Avoid beans that are too soft or mushy.
  • Soak the beans before grilling: Soaking the beans overnight or for at least 4 hours will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Season the beans well: Before grilling, toss the beans with a flavorful marinade or seasoning blend. This will help them develop a delicious crust and prevent them from tasting bland.
  • Grill the beans over medium-high heat: This will help them cook quickly and evenly without burning.
  • Flip the beans often: This will help them cook evenly on all sides and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
  • Cook the beans until they are tender: The beans should be tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked beans will be mushy.
  • Serve the beans immediately: Grilled beans are best served hot off the grill. They can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or appetizer.

Conclusion:

Grilled beans are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are a great source of protein, fiber, and vitamins, and they can be easily customized to suit your taste. Whether you like them spicy, smoky, or sweet, there is a grilled bean recipe out there for you.
