Lemon Sesame Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Add green beans; cook, uncovered, 3-4 minutes or just until crisp-tender. Remove green beans; drain well., Whisk the remaining ingredients until blended. Pour over green beans; toss to coat. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Steam green beans covered in 1/2-inch boiling water for 2 minutes. Transfer beans to a colander and run under cold water. Drain well.
• Heat a wok shaped skillet or large nonstick frying pan over high heat. Go once-around-the-pan with wok or vegetable oil, add several drops sesame oil, and crushed pepper flakes. The pan will smoke. Add beans and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add sesame seeds and coarse salt and toss to coat beans evenly.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add sesame seeds. When seeds start to darken, stir in green beans. Cook, stirring, until the beans turn bright green.
• Pour in chicken broth, salt and pepper. Cover and cook until beans are tender-crisp, about 10 minutes. Uncover and cook until liquid evaporates.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the salt and beans.
• Cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water.
• Drain the beans and pat them dry. Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with the oil and lemon juice and toss.
• Sprinkle with the zest and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water. Place in a bowl and toss with the sesame seeds, lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper. Divide among 4 plates and serve.

Steps:

• Remove any large stems from the greens and wash them thoroughly; do so in a sink with at least 5 inches of water. Moving the leaves around in the water and allowing them to sit for a few minutes to allow the sand or dirt to fall to the bottom of the sink. Once clean, roughly chop the greens. You should have 1 to 1 1/4 pounds finished greens once they are stemmed. (Weigh the greens after stemming, but before washing.)
• Heat a large 13 by 11-inch roasting pan set over 2 burners on medium heat. Once hot, add the olive oil. Add the garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Add the greens and saute for 4 to 5 minutes, tossing continually. Add the red pepper flakes and the sesame seeds. Toss to combine. Adjust seasoning, if needed. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut beans into 2" to 3" lengths then steam them for about 10 minutes or until just tender.
• Meantime, mix butter, zest, lemon juice, salt & lemon pepper, then combine with steamed beans & toss to coat.
