Garlicky Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Place beans in a large bowl; cover with water by several inches. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
• Preheat broiler. Drain and rinse beans. Transfer to a large pot; cover with 8 cups cold water. Place garlic cloves on a rimmed baking sheet and place under broiler, turning to charall over, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic, oil, and thyme to pot; season generously with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until beans are just tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove and discard aromatics; serve. (Or let cool completely in broth, then store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 5 days.)

Steps:

• Toast 4 sliced garlic cloves and a pinch of cayenne pepper in a skillet with butter. Add 1 1/4 pounds green beans, season with salt and a pinch of sugar and cook 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water, cover and cook 6 minutes, then uncover and boil until the water evaporates. Season with salt and pepper and toss with chopped pecans.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath. Blanch the green beans briefly in the boiling water, then transfer to the ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
• In a large pan on medium-high heat, add the butter, garlic and lemon juice. When the butter is melted and the garlic is fragrant, add the green beans and toss until just heated through. Taste a green bean and season with salt and pepper if needed. Remove to a serving plate and wipe the pan clean. Add the almonds and lemon zest and quickly toast a minute or two. Sprinkle the toasted almonds and zest over the green beans and serve.

Steps:

• Cook the green beans in boiling water for 2-3 mins until just tender, then drain well and steam-dry for a min.
• Meanwhile, gently fry the garlic in the oil until pale golden - no further. Toss with the beans, season and serve.

Steps:

• Place green beans into a large skillet and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until beans start to soften, about 5 minutes. Drain water. Add butter to green beans; cook and stir until butter is melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Cook and stir garlic with green beans until garlic is tender and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with lemon pepper and salt.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter with olive oil; add garlic, and cook until lightly browned, stirring frequently. Stir in green beans, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until beans are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring beans and water to a boil; reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until beans and crisp-tender; drain and set aside. In a large skillet, saute garlic in butter until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add beans, salt and pepper; heat through.

Steps:

• In a medium pot over high heat, bring about 4 cups water and 1 Tbsp. plus 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 Tbsp. Morton kosher salt to a rolling boil. Add 1 lb. green beans, trimmed, and cook, uncovered, until bright green, about 3 minutes. Drain the green beans in a colander and rinse with cold water for 10 seconds.
• In a large sauté pan over medium-high, add 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil and heat for about 10 seconds. Add the drained green beans, 5 garlic cloves, finely chopped, ¼ tsp. coarsely ground black pepper, and remaining 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt. Sauté until each green bean is evenly coated in oil, about 2 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a skillet melted the butter with oil over medium heat.
• Add in the sliced garlic and crushed chili flakes; cook stirring for about 4 minutes or just until the garlic is just lightly browned (do not burn the garlic).
• Add in steamed beans and toss until heated through.
• Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Remove to a bowl and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Delicious!
