Peanutty Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Add the vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and mostly cooked through, about 8 minutes.
• Add the green beans and saute until slightly brown but still bright green, about 2 more minutes.
• Cook the pasta to al dente according to the directions on the package.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Whisk together the coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, sugar, chile oil, lime juice and 1/3 cup water in a medium bowl or large measuring cup (the peanut butter will not fully incorporate). Set aside.
• Add the ginger and garlic to the skillet with the chicken and beans. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the curry powder and stir until toasted, about 20 seconds.
• Pour the coconut milk mixture into the skillet, making sure to get all of the peanut butter out of the bowl. Scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet and cook until the sauce boils and thickens slightly, about 4 minutes.
• Drain the pasta and pour into the skillet, then carefully toss to coat. Gently tip the pasta onto a serving platter. Garnish with peanuts, cilantro and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook uncovered until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the green beans are cold, drain well and cut into 2-inch pieces.
• While the green beans are cooking, stir together the peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce, peanuts, and miso paste in a mixing bowl. Once the green beans have been cut, stir into the peanut sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Saute 1 pound trimmed, halved green beans in peanut oil over high heat until browned, 5 to 6 minutes; remove. Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons grated ginger, 6 dried chiles de arbol and 1/4 cup chopped peanuts; cook 30 seconds. Add the green beans, 3 chopped scallions and 1 teaspoon each sugar and Asian chili-garlic sauce; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, combine green beans, scallions, garlic and 2 tablespoons of the neutral oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss to evenly coat, then spread in an even layer.
• Prepare the peanut butter glaze: In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, lemon juice, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil and 1 tablespoon water. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk until smooth.
• Rub salmon with the remaining 1 tablespoon neutral oil and season with salt. Arrange salmon on top of beans and spoon half of the peanut butter glaze on top of the fish. Roast for 5 minutes, then spoon over the remaining glaze. Roast until salmon is cooked to medium and beans are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes more, depending on thickness.
• Divide salmon and beans among serving plates. Top with peanuts and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• cook green beans in the microwave or oven as directed.
• coat pan with sesame oil and cook green beans to desired done-ness (I like mine soft ~10min).
• mince and add garlic to oil about 5 min before green beans are done to saute.
• add remaining ingredients, remove from heat, and stir.
• enjoy!
