Pimiento Green Beans Recipes

FAVORITE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, place the green beans in water, and bring to a boil. Cover, and cook 6 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat, and drain.
• In an 8x8 inch baking dish, mix together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, pimentos, and pepper. Stir in the green beans. Sprinkle with French-fried onions.
• Bake, uncovered, 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until the casserole is hot and bubbly in the center.

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS WITH PIMENTO

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add green beans and pimento and cook 2 minutes. Add vinegar and water, cover and steam 3 to 5 minutes, until green beans are crisp-tender. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

FRESH GREEN BEAN AND PIMIENTO BUNDLES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, bring the water to a simmer over medium heat. Add the green onion tops and cook just to soften, about 10 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and reduce the heat to low. To make 12 bundles, tie 8 green beans and 3 pimiento or roasted red pepper strips together with a green onion top. Place the bundles in the water, raise the heat to medium-low, and cover. Cook until the beans are crisp tender and bright green, about 5 minutes.
