Best 5 Harissa Roasted Green Beans Recipes

HARISSA-ROASTED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. On a baking sheet, toss green beans with oil and harissa until coated; season with salt and pepper. Roast, shaking pan once halfway through, until beans are browned in spots, 20 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds before serving.

BLISTERED GREEN BEANS AND TOMATOES WITH HONEY, HARISSA AND MINT

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine harissa, honey and lime juice. Stir together until combined and season to taste with salt.
• In large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the grapeseed oil and the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add green beans and cook undisturbed until they began to char in spots, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, tossing frequently, until beans are just cooked through and slightly blistered and browned in spots, about 5 to 6 minutes more. Some beans will be more cooked than others - that's O.K. Season with salt and place beans in a bowl.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil in the skillet. Add tomatoes and cook undisturbed until they also begin to char in spots, about 1 minute. Stir tomatoes frequently until they are just cooked through and some begin to burst, about 2 minutes more. They do not need to be totally cooked through. Season with salt.
• Remove skillet from heat and add green beans. Add harissa mixture and butter and toss until everything is combined and butter is melted. Add in half of the mint and stir again. Spoon into a large bowl and scatter with remaining mint. Garnish with flaky salt, if using.

SLOW-COOKED GREEN BEANS WITH HARISSA AND CUMIN

Steps:

• Place a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 350°F. Toss green beans, garlic, oil, harissa, cumin seeds, and salt in a shallow 2-qt. baking dish to combine.
• Turn garlic cut side down, then roast vegetables, tossing 2 or 3 times, until golden brown and very tender, 60-70 minutes. Let cool slightly, then add vinegar and toss to coat.

CHARRED GREEN BEANS WITH HARISSA AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• Char bell pepper (if using fresh) and jalapenños directly over a gas flame or under a broiler until soft and charred all over, 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Let steam for 15 minutes.
• Peel, seed, and mince bell pepper and jalapenños. Combine peppers, chiles, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse, scraping down sides of bowl, to make a coarse paste. Pulse in 1 tablespoon oil, lemon juice, coriander, and cumin. Season harissa with salt and black pepper.
• Place beans in a medium bowl; drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and black pepper and toss to coat. heat a large cast-iron skillet or other large heavy skillet over high heat. Working in batches, cook beans, turning occasionally, until blistered and charred in places but still crisp-tender, 6-8 minutes. (Or cook them in a grill basket on the grill.) Transfer to a large bowl; toss with harissa and almonds. Serve warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED GREEN BEANS WITH HARISSA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or large grill pan to high.
• Prepare a large bowl of ice water; set aside. Fill a large saucepan halfway with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Season the water generously with salt. Add the beans and blanch until just crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Drain, and plunge the beans into the ice water for 2 minutes to stop the cooking. Drain the beans and pat dry with kitchen towels.
• Put the beans in a large bowl and toss with the vegetable oil. Using tongs, arrange in a single layer on the grill and cook until lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, harissa, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
• Add the warm beans, toss, and serve warm or at room temperature.
