Number Of Ingredients 10

2 ounces Tasso Ham
3 pounds fresh green beans, stem ends and strings removed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, peeled, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
4 teaspoons finely minced garlic (about 4 cloves)
2 teaspoons apple-cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place ham in the freezer until almost frozen, 3 to 4 hours. Cut it into julienne strips. Set aside.
  • Fill a large pot with water; bring to a boil. Add beans; cook until bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
  • Place butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When butter is melted, add onions and garlic; saute until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add green beans, and turn heat to high; saute tossing, until beans are heated through, about 2 minutes.
  • Add ham, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper; saute until ham renders fat, about 3 minutes. Serve hot.

I had trouble finding tasso ham, but I used smoked ham instead and it turned out great.

I found the dish to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more seasoning.

The green beans were a bit overcooked for my taste, but the flavor was still good.
