String Green Beans With Shallots Recipes

Steps:

• Blanch the string beans in a large pot of boiling salted water for 11/2 minutes only. Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water. Heat the butter and oil in a very large saute pan (12-inch diameter) or large pot and saute the shallots on medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned. Drain the string beans and add to the shallots with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper, tossing well. Heat only until the beans are hot.

Steps:

• Place the beans in a steamer in a pot filled with 2 inches of boiling water. Cover and steam until the beans are bright green and still slightly firm to the bite, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, shallot, some salt and pepper, and the oil. Pour the dressing over the beans and toss to coat. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to overnight. Bring to room temperature and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place green beans in a large bowl. Mix in shallots, garlic, and almonds. Drizzle olive oil over the top; sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on top. Toss until everything is evenly coated with oil. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until beans are slightly shriveled and shallots are lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• 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:

• Blanch the string beans in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1-1/2 minutes only.
• Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water.
• Heat the butter and oil in a very large saute pan or large pot(12" diameter) and saute the shallots with crrushed red pepper flakes, if using, on medium heat for 5-10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned.
• Drain the string beans and add to the shallots with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper, tossing well.
• Heat only until the beans are hot.
• *If you are using regular string beans, blanch them for about 3 minutes, until they're crisp-tender.

Steps:

• Boil 1 1/2 pounds green beans, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain and cool in ice water, then drain and dry. Toast 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a skillet with 2 teaspoons olive oil, 1 minute. Mix with 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and 1 teaspoon salt, then toss with the beans. Toss 2 sliced shallots in flour and fry in the skillet with more oil, 3 minutes; sprinkle on top of the beans.

Steps:

• Blanch the string beans in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 1/2 minutes only. Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water.
• Heat the butter and oil in a very large saute pan (12-inch diameter) or large pot and saute the shallots on medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned. Drain the string beans and add to the shallots with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper, tossing well. Heat only until the beans are hot.
• If you're using regular string beans, blanch them for about 3 minutes, until they're crisp-tender.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Toss the beans and shallots with the oil and salt on a baking sheet. Roast, stirring twice during roasting, until the shallots have caramelized and the beans are beginning to brown and wilt, about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with pepper and serve hot.
• Variation: Roasted Asparagus
• Substitute asparagus and roast about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oil and shallots in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, swirling the skillet occasionally, until shallots are lightly browned and starting to crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shallots to a paper towel; season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer half of the oil from the pan to a small bowl. Return the skillet to medium-high heat, and add green beans. Season with salt and pepper and cook, without tossing, until lightly charred and blistered on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Give them a toss, and cook, another 3 to 4 minutes, until just tender and cooked through.
• Add butter and anchovies, and season with salt and pepper. Add kale, and toss to coat until greens are wilted and tender and butter is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and add vinegar, tossing to coat. Season with salt, pepper and more vinegar, if needed.
• Transfer to a large bowl or platter and drizzle with reserved shallot oil. Scatter with fried shallots and flaky salt, and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat; swirl to coat bottom of pan. Add shallots; cover. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling salted water, cook green beans until fork-tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain; return to pot. Toss with remaining tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer green beans to a serving dish; top with caramelized shallots.
