Best Grilled Green Beans With Harissa Recipes

BLISTERED GREEN BEANS AND TOMATOES WITH HONEY, HARISSA AND MINT

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine harissa, honey and lime juice. Stir together until combined and season to taste with salt.
• In large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the grapeseed oil and the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add green beans and cook undisturbed until they began to char in spots, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, tossing frequently, until beans are just cooked through and slightly blistered and browned in spots, about 5 to 6 minutes more. Some beans will be more cooked than others - that's O.K. Season with salt and place beans in a bowl.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil in the skillet. Add tomatoes and cook undisturbed until they also begin to char in spots, about 1 minute. Stir tomatoes frequently until they are just cooked through and some begin to burst, about 2 minutes more. They do not need to be totally cooked through. Season with salt.
• Remove skillet from heat and add green beans. Add harissa mixture and butter and toss until everything is combined and butter is melted. Add in half of the mint and stir again. Spoon into a large bowl and scatter with remaining mint. Garnish with flaky salt, if using.

• 4. In a small, non-reactive prep bowl whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, harissa (to taste) and salt. Note: I added 2 teaspoons of harissa.
• 5. Arrange the grilled green beans on a serving platter.
• 6. Pour the vinaigrette over the green beans. Serve warm or at room temperature. A garnish of fresh parsley (or cilantro) and/or crispy shallots would not be out of place.
