These are a delicious and different way to prepare green beans. I made these for a dinner party, doubled the recipe and there was not a bean left. Ingredients:
1 lb green beans, ends snapped off |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1 tablespoon chopped garlic (about 3 medium cloves) |
1 dash ground ginger |
2 teaspoons honey |
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil |
1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes |
4 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line rimmed baking sheet with foil, spread beans on baking sheet.
2. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt; Using hands, toss to coat evenly, and distribute in even layer.
3. Roast in oven for 10 minutes.
4. While roasting, combine garlic, ginger, honey, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes in small bowl.
5. Remove beans from oven. Coat beans evenly with the garlic/ginger mixture; redistribute in even layer.
6. Return to oven and continue roasting until beans are dark golden brown in spots and starting to shrivel, 10-12 minutes longer.
7. Adjust seasoning with salt if necessary, toss well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
