Shallot Sauteed Green Beans Recipes

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS TWO WAYS

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with ice water, and set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and add salt. Add half the beans, return to a boil, and cook until bright green and just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, plunge beans into ice water to stop the cooking. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining green beans. (Blanched green beans can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days.)
• For shallot-garlic green beans: Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Add green beans, raise heat to medium-high, and cook until heated through and beginning to brown in places, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt. Serve immediately.
• For Asian-style green beans: Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add green beans, and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Add chili paste and sugar, and stir until well coated. Season with salt. Serve immediately.

SAUTéED GREEN BEANS WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, over medium heat, add the butter and the olive oil, along with the shallots and salt.
• Saute the shallots until caramelized. Slow is the way to go to get a good caramelized shallot. Allow 30 minutes of saute time for this part of the recipe.
• Next, toss in the green and yellow beans, and the black pepper. Toss to coat with caramelized shallots.
• Saute the beans for 5 minutes. The beans will be heated all the way through, but still have a little crunch. If you prefer a softer green bean, saute for an additional few minutes.
• Plate and serve immediately.

• Add the beans, salt and pepper, and saute briefly. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve with the chicken.

Steps:

• In a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, add the butter and oil and let the butter melt.
• Add the shallots and cook, stirring often until they soften and start to turn a little golden--about 5 minutes.
• Add the mustard and vinegar and use a whisk to combine it. Stir vigorously for about 1 minute to help it come together.
• Add the green beans and increase the heat to medium high. Toss the green beans to coat in the sauce and add the salt and pepper. You can add half the salt if you'd prefer and the rest at the end if you need it.
• Cook until the green beans are hot all the way through and tender--about 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Serve warm with the sauce poured over the top and add some toasted almonds or walnuts on top if desired.

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Prepare the green beans according to the package instructions.
• Melt the butter in a skillet. Saute the shallots over medium to medium high heat, depending on your preference of crispness. (I like them crisp). Add minced garlic if you are using it. (Add when shallots are almost to your desired level of doneness).
• Stir in balsamic vinegar and grape tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Saute 2 more minutes.

SHALLOT SAUTEED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Bring 6-7 quarts of water to a boil in a large, deep pot. When at a rolling boil, add two pinches of salt.
• Carefully add the washed and trimmed green beans.
• Stir gently for 30-45 seconds, or until the beans turn a bright green color. The ideas is not only to blanch them, but to partially cook them.
• After 30-45 seconds have passed, drain beans into colander. Toss beans to remove any excess water and leave to drain.
• Melt butter over low heat. When foaming subsides, add olive oil. Add the shallots in handfuls, separating the layers while sprinkling into the pan.
• Allow the shallot to cook over medium heat until it becomes slightly translucent.
• Add beans, boost heat to medium high. Toss the beans with the butter and oil until all are coated.
• Continue to toss the beans every few minutes, or until they are cooked through and a little browned. Add salt and pepper to taste.
