These green beans were the side dish my grandmother served most often because we all love them. They are done but not mushy like canned beans.

Time 30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 ½ pounds fresh green beans, trimmed and snapped
garlic powder to taste
onion powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • In a stainless steel pot over medium-high heat, combine green beans, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, until the beans begin to sweat. Remove lid and stir occasionally until beans are tender.
  • When the beans and spices have begun to 'burn' on the bottom of the pan, which will lend a grilled flavor, stir in the olive oil and turn off heat. Cover, and let stand a few minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate the 'burnt' spices. Beans should have a dark, caramel color, but not black.

Once upon a time, Dad received a similar recipe with a bundle of fresh green beans. He made the recipe once and then lost the card. After many attempts to recreate that flavor, he declares that this, his own recipe, is even better!

3 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon white sugar

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb green beans, trimmed, cut in 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2-2 cups water (may need more later)
1 teaspoon salt
all purpose Greek seasoning (optional)
liquid smoke (optional)
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Place olive oil in the bottom of a medium to large saucepan.
  • Put green beans in pan, then sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt over the beans.
  • Pour in water.
  • Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium low, cover partially, and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the water is almost completely gone, stirring occasionally.
  • This is approximate, so check every so often, you may need to add a little more water to get beans cooked to desired doneness.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.
  • Note: My sister loves to add Greek seasoning and a few dashes of liquid smoke to this. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!
