Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 pound green beans, end trimmed
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
1 clove garlic, grated
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons fresh oregano, finely chopped
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup crumbled feta
1/4 cup sliced toasted almonds

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook at a rapid boil until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the green beans to an ice bath, then dry on a kitchen towel.
  • Add the green beans to a grill basket and place over indirect heat to char them slightly, about 5 minutes. You do not have to cover the grill. When they reach the char level you are looking for, transfer them to a serving platter.
  • Whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, mustard and oregano in a medium bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking constantly, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour the oregano vinaigrette over the green beans while still warm, then sprinkle with the feta and almonds. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SKILLET-CHARRED GREEN BEANS

These green beans with bagna cauda flavors make a wonderful accompaniment to any meat, fish or chicken dish. The beans are simple to cook and fairly effortless, so do resist the urge to stir too often. Allow them to sit, caramelize and shrivel to bring out all of their natural sweetness. Anchovies are tossed in at the end for a bright, salty hit that complements the sweet beans and shallots. These beans can be made ahead, and are equally delicious warm or at room temperature.

Time 15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 pound green beans, trimmed and patted dry
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 anchovies, minced

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a small bowl.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add green beans, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat in the oil. Leave undisturbed over medium heat for 2 minutes to encourage charring, then stir and cook, tossing every 2 minutes, until most of the beans are shriveled, about 6 minutes longer.
  • Reduce heat to low and add the shallot mixture and anchovies. Cook, stirring, until well incorporated and anchovies dissolve, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm or at room temperature.

BLISTERED GREEN BEANS WITH HERB SAUCE



Blistered Green Beans with Herb Sauce image

The green sauce in this recipe is similar to pesto, but lacks cheese and has a bigger punch of acidity. The mild flavor of pistachios enhances the natural sweetness of the lightly charred beans, though the more traditional pine nut would also work well for this dish.

Steps:

  • Pulse 1 cup fresh basil, 1/4 cup each fresh parsley and pistachios and 1 scallion in a food processor.

Cook 1 1/4 pounds green beans in olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Add a splash of water and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, tossing, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Toss with the sauce.
