Hello friends!

Well, it's been a while since I've blogged a recipe- and for good reason! I've gotten some flack for the brussels sprouts. :) All I'm sayin is, don't judge till you try it.

Anyway... I wanted to post another easy, quick, yummy Asian side-dish for you...I mean, come on, who doesn't like green beans? Sometimes I just make this as a meal, too. I'm actually eating it for lunch today! :)

Yummy Spicy Green Beans


Ingredients:

2-3 handfuls of fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 3-inch pieces
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 bell pepper (I like red or yellow) cubed

2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

2 teaspoons red chilli flakes


1) Trim, cut, and wash green beans. Fill a large saucepan 3/4 of the way with water and bring to a boil.

2) Add green beans to boiling water, just until bright green and crispy, about 3 minutes. Drain green beans and plunge into a bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Drain and set aside.

3) In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.

4) Add garlic to the skillet and cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes.

5) Add green beans to the pepper and garlic in the skillet and warm the green beans for a few minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

6) Sprinkle red chili flakes over the green bean mixture, stir. Add toasted sesame oil, stir, and remove from heat. Serve immediately.

Hope y'all enjoy!

-Beth
