French-Style Green Beans image

These beans are one of my favorite side dishes. I serve them at our church steak dinner. A smattering of onions can be used to pep up the mild flavor of the beans.-Hope Meece, Ambia, Indiana

More about "frenched green beans recipes"

2018-11-02 Thin green beans cook quickly, so rinsing them with cold water (or putting them into an ice water bath) is important if you want to keep them crisp. The beans in this side dish recipe take only 20 minutes to prepare, but taste their best after a couple hours in the fridge where they soak up the flavor of the shallot-thyme mixture.
