• Bring a medium pot of cold water to a boil over high heat and salt it generously. Trim the stem end off the green beans. Peel and finely chop the shallot.
• Drop the green beans into the boiling water and cook, uncovered, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain in a colander set in the sink and rinse with very cold water until cool. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels. (The vegetables can be prepared up to this point, up to 4 hours ahead.)
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is just golden, about 2 minutes. Add the green beans, increase the heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through, about 4 minutes. Season with the 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring 6-7 quarts of water to a boil in a large, deep pot. When at a rolling boil, add two pinches of salt.
• Carefully add the washed and trimmed green beans.
• Stir gently for 30-45 seconds, or until the beans turn a bright green color. The ideas is not only to blanch them, but to partially cook them.
• After 30-45 seconds have passed, drain beans into colander. Toss beans to remove any excess water and leave to drain.
• Melt butter over low heat. When foaming subsides, add olive oil. Add the shallots in handfuls, separating the layers while sprinkling into the pan.
• Allow the shallot to cook over medium heat until it becomes slightly translucent.
• Add beans, boost heat to medium high. Toss the beans with the butter and oil until all are coated.
• Continue to toss the beans every few minutes, or until they are cooked through and a little browned. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil. Add the beans and cover the pot. Continue cooking the beans, covered, for 3 to 5 minutes until tender but firm. Drain and rinse under cold water.
• At serving time, heat the butter in a skillet, add the shallots and saute for about 1 minute, until the shallots start to brown.
• Add the beans, salt and pepper, and saute briefly. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve with the chicken.
