Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 3/4 lb. yellow haricots verts, trimmed
  • 1 large shallot, sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • 1/4- 1 tsp. dried red chili flakes (depending on preference)
  • 1 lemon
  • olive oil
  • coarse, flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large saute pan, warm a splash of olive oil over medium-low heat.

  2. 2

    Add the yellow beans, shallots, garlic and chili flakes. Season with salt.

  3. 3

    Saute the beans until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  4. 4

    Add a small splash of water to the pan, and place a lid on top.

  5. 5

    Cook the beans on low for about 3-5 minutes. Tip: If your heat is too high, the outside will overcook, causing the inside to remain crunchy.

  6. 6

    Remove the lid, and continue to cook until all of the moisture has evaporated and the beans are crisp tender.

  7. 7

    Add a small squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Adjust with more lemon and salt as desired.

  8. 8

    Serve warm.
