Browning butter is a French technique that gives butter a rich and nutty flavor. We've simplified this process by preparing it in the microwave. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed |
1/2 small sweet onion, sliced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon cracked pepper |
Directions:
1. Microwave butter in a 2-cup glass measuring cup at HIGH 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until butter is brown. Remove from microwave, and immediately add minced garlic.
2. Place green beans, onion, and 3 Tbsp. water in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap, folding back a small edge to allow steam to escape.
3. Microwave at HIGH 4 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender; drain. Toss together hot beans and sliced onion, brown butter mixture, and salt; sprinkle with cracked pepper.
