Miso-Watercress Green Beans image

For everyday dinners and holiday gatherings alike, go beyond the casserole and green beans can be an exciting side dish. Here, they're quickly cooked in a skillet, then brightened with a mixture of umami-rich miso paste, tart lemon, and peppery watercress.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 pound green beans, trimmed
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons white miso paste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup packed watercress, torn into pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oil and garlic in a large skillet over medium-high; stir until just beginning to sizzle, 1 minute. Add green beans, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing to coat, about 1 minute.
  • Add 1/4 cup water and cover. Reduce heat to medium and steam, shaking pan occasionally, until beans are bright and tender and most of water has evaporated, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • In a bowl, whisk together miso and lemon juice. Toss beans with dressing and watercress and serve immediately.

This recipe was a disaster! The miso-tahini dressing was way too runny and the green beans were overcooked.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The miso-tahini dressing was a bit too salty for my taste.

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover watercress. The miso-tahini dressing was a nice change from the usual vinaigrette.

I'm not a huge fan of watercress, but I loved this recipe! The miso-tahini dressing was delicious and the green beans were cooked perfectly.

Very flavorful and easy to make. I used a bit less miso than the recipe called for and it was still plenty flavorful.
