When someone says the words
“Green Beans” to you,
do often start salivating…
Or plotting how you can get some….
Or, do you hide some in your purse
in case you need a little treat for later?
You don’t?
Get out of here.
That’s just plain crazy.
(Ok, I don’t either)
How. Ever.
These Saucy Sesame Green Beans are not your run of the mill bean.
They do NOT cry out
“Ho, hum…blah, blah another vegetable.”
No sir, ree. Not these beans.
Now. I am not going to tell you that these Saucy Sesame Green Beans taste like Cheesecake or anything like that.
But…
They are darn good.
WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than your average can, or plain old package of frozen green beans.
They are accompanied with a
delicious,
peanuty,
sesame,
sugary sauce.
Try them.
Hope you love them.
Wish I were eating them.
Right this very second.
Here are your ingredients….in all their glory.
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh or frozen green beans
- 1 T olive oil
- 3 T soy sauce
- 2 t sesame seeds
- 2 1/2 t garlic cloves minced
- 4 T brown sugar
- 3 T peanut butter
Instructions
1. Heat a skillet up over high heat. When it's hot add your olive oil. When the oil is hot add the green beans. Turn it down to medium high and cook until the beans are crisp tender. Should take about 10 minutes. Stir it around every so often so the cook evenly.
2. In a medium sized bowl combine all other ingredients. When the beans are done cooking pour the sauce over the top of the beans. Stir it around to incorporate.
3. Cook just until the sauce is heated through.
4. Serve immediately.
