CARAMELIZED ONION GREEN BEANS



Caramelized Onion Green Beans image

This recipe came from a Woman's World magazine. It is very good and has a very pretty presentation. (**Updating to say that I made this recipe with canned cut green beans. I simply drained them and heated them in a little broth for about 3-5 minutes and added them to the recipe instead of fresh green beans. They were very good this way...a nice way to dress up canned green beans.)

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, sliced, about 2 cups
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dry cajun seasoning (I used blacken seasoning)
1 1/2 lbs green beans

Steps:

  • In skillet, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 7-10 minutes. Add sugar, salt, and Cajun seasoning. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring often, until onion is soft and golden brown, 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans; cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. (Next time, I will cook longer as mine were not as done as I would have liked them.) Drain well, then add to onion with remaining 1 Tbsp butter. Cook, stirring, until heated through, 1 minute.

GREEN BEAN AND CHERRY TOMATO SALAD



Green Bean and Cherry Tomato Salad image

I found this recipe in Cooking Light a couple years ago. My family loves it and I make it all year long, not just in the summer. In a pinch, I have even made this using Trader Joe's frozen baby french green beans. This salad is always a big hit. Try to use a good quality red wine vinegar, like a cabernet vinegar, it really makes a difference.
