Description

A fresh and easy way to make flavorful fresh green beans. Goes great with poultry, beef, pork or fish. The citrus kick brightens up your veggies!

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons basil-infused olive oil
  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions
  1. 1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add green beans and toss to evenly coat with olive oil. Cook, stirring occasionally for even cooking, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add walnuts, white balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper; mix to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally so walnuts don't burn, until beans are soft but maintain some crunch, 5 to 10 minutes.
  2. 2. Remove from heat and sprinkle with lemon juice and red pepper flakes.
