Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon pale, dry Sherry or dry white wine
1 small cube chicken bouillon
2/3 cup chicken broth
1 pound green beans
1 tablespoon oil, like peanut or canola
2 tablespoons butter
4 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
2 scallions, chopped

Steps:

Mix soy sauce, sugar and Sherry and set aside.
In a large saucepan, dissolve bouillon in the chicken broth over high heat. Add the beans, and simmer until nearly all liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly. Drain the beans and set aside.
In a wok or skillet, heat the oil and butter. Add garlic and scallions and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until just softened. Add the beans and toss until coated. Sprinkle soy-sugar-Sherry mix over beans and stir-fry for 1 minute. Serve hot.
