Green Beans with Ginger and Cashews image

Even if you're a fan of the traditional green bean casserole, you might want to consider subbing these simply prepared fresh beans, which can provide balance to all the rich items on the menu. Plus, this streamlined dish, which needs just a brief rewarming on top of the stove before serving, won't contribute to a last-minute traffic jam in the oven.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 cups)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped (from 2 1/2-inch knob)
1/2 cup Homemade Turkey Stock or canned turkey stock or canned low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup salted roasted cashews, coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In large pot boiling salted water , cook beans until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain in colander and rinse well under cold running water. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels. (Green beans can be prepared up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated, wrapped in paper towels, in zippered plastic bags.)
  • In 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, heat butter until hot but not smoking. Add ginger and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in green beans and stock and cook, stirring often, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 3 to 6 minutes. Add cashews and sauté 1 minute. Stir in salt and pepper. (Green beans can be made up to 30 minutes before serving. Let stand in skillet, uncovered. Reheat over high heat, stirring often, about 2 minutes.) Transfer to serving dish and serve immediately.

This recipe is a waste of time. The green beans were mushy and the cashews were burnt.

The green beans were overcooked and the cashews were too crunchy. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This recipe was too bland for my taste. I added some garlic and red pepper flakes to give it a little more flavor.

I'm not a fan of ginger, so I omitted it from the recipe. The green beans were still delicious.
