A mixture of celery, onion and green pepper adds a spark to this simple green bean side dish from Ruby Williams, Bogalusa, Louisiana. It's pleasantly seasoned with dried tarragon and lemon-pepper, so its flavor complements most main-dish meats. Ingredients:
4 cups fresh or frozen cut green beans |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 celery rib, chopped |
1/2 cup finely chopped green pepper |
2 tablespoons butter |
3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon |
1/2 teaspoon salt-free lemon-pepper seasoning |
pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the beans, water and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, saute the onion, celery and green pepper in butter until tender. Stir in the tarragon, lemon-pepper and pepper. Drain beans; add vegetable mixture and toss to coat. Yield: 6 servings.
