Roasted Green Beans With Pine Nuts Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the green beans and blanch them for 2 to 3 minutes, until tender but still crisp. Drain the beans in a colander and immediately put them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and preserve their bright green color.
• For the gremolata, toss the garlic, lemon zest, parsley, parmesan, and pine nuts in a small bowl and set aside.
• When ready to serve, heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Drain the beans and pat them dry. Add the beans to the pan and saute, turning frequently, for 2 minutes, until coated with olive oil and heated through. Off the heat, add the gremolata and toss well. Sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and serve hot.

Steps:

• Saute 1 sliced red onion in a skillet with olive oil, 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 pound green beans; cook 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water and salt and pepper to taste; cook until the beans are tender, 7 minutes. Stir in 3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts; season with salt and pepper.

• Toss the beans and garlic with 1/4 cup of the olive oil, 1 Tbs lemon zest, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper.
• Spread the beans on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in the top third of the oven for 10 minutes. Stir the beans and garlic with a spatula for more even cooking and coloring.
• Continue roasting until the beans and garlic pieces are lightly browned and tender throughout, another 10 - 15 minutes.
