These green beans look very pretty with the red and yellow peppers added. Throw in the italian seasonings and you get a great side dish. From an Atlanta real estate company cookbook by Cathryn DuBow. The original recipe called for 1/4 cup vegetable oil, but I thought that was too much. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs fresh green beans, cut in 1-inch pieces |
1/8 cup vegetable oil (i use a bit less) |
1 cup yellow sweet pepper, diced |
3/4 cup sweet red pepper, diced |
1/4 cup onion, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon dried basil |
1/8 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/8 teaspoon dried whole thyme |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated and divided |
Directions:
1. Cook the green beans in boiling water to cover for 3 minutes; drain, and plunge into cold water. Drain well, and set aside.
2. Pour oil into a large skillet; place over medium heat until hot. Add sweet peppers, onion, and garlic, and saute for 3 minutes. Add the reserved green beans, basil, and next 3 ingredients; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
3. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup cheese. Transfer bean mixture to a serving dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese.
