Green Beans

These sweet, tender vegetables are a favorite to prepare at the height of the summer. Green beans cook quickly, and here you will find all of my favorite green bean recipes, including these spicy, blistered  broiled green beans.

5-Ingredient, 8-Minute Glazed Green Beans
In grilled trout, when the skin crisps, and the meat flakes off the tiny delicate skeleton, tasting not a bit dry or fishy just fresh and delicious, never am I happier. This meal has become a recent favorite. Greens beans, needing nothing more than a three-minute steam and a drizzling of olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon, salt and pepper, are so good right now. And this brown butter orzo "risotto," is a long-time favorite.So easy, so delicious. // alexandracooks.com
