These Szechuan green beans taste wonderful and are almost as good as takeout Chinese green beans! Their spicy flavor is wonderful with ham and a baked yam.
Ingredients
- ½ pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- ¼ cup water
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon white sugar
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Combine green beans and water in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender-crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and sesame oil; cook, stirring frequently, until garlic is fragrant and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 2
Mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Pour over beans and cook until sauce thickens enough to coat beans, 3 to 5 minutes.
