Green beans are elevated by the flavors of roasted garlic & fresh oregano. Oh so easy and tasty! (Sorry for the poor quality pic, had to snap with my phone.) Ingredients:
2 tsp olive oil |
4 cups green beans, trimmed & halved |
1/2 head roasted garlic |
1-2 tbsp fresh oregano leaves roughly torn or chopped |
salt & pepper, to taste |
*take a whole head of garlic, cut a cross section off the top to expose inside of cloves. drizzle with olive oil. roast in oven at 400 for 45min-1hr. allow to cool enough to handle. squeeze out garlic paste. use half for this recipe, reserve other half for other uses - such as spreading on warm bread. |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. 2. Add green beans. Saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 3. Add garlic, salt and pepper. Continue to saute, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes. 4. Add oregano and cook for an additional 2-5 minutes. Check for tenderness after 2 minutes, the goal is crisp-tender. |
