Provided by Aida Mollenkamp

Categories     side-dish

Time 9m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon lightly packed lemon zest
1 teaspoon rinsed and finely chopped cured anchovies (about 2 fillets)
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 cup thinly sliced cured pitted black olives
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. Prepare a water bath by filling a bowl halfway with ice water.
  • Once water boils, add green beans until cooked but still firm, about 4 minutes. Place in ice water bath until cool. Drain and shake off excess water.
  • In a medium nonreactive bowl, thoroughly mix olive oil, juice, zest, and anchovies; season well with salt and pepper. Add green beans, shallot, olives, and parsley, and mix well; taste, adjust seasoning as needed. Salad can be served immediately though flavor improves as it sits.

Tips:

  • For a smoky flavor, use a smoked ham.
  • If you don't have canned black beans, you can cook your own. Just soak them overnight in water and then simmer them for about an hour.
  • Add some chopped fresh cilantro for a refreshing flavor.
  • Serve the salad with a side of cornbread or tortilla chips.
  • To make the salad ahead of time, simply combine all of the ingredients and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
