रेसिपी विवरण:

These green beans tossed with creamy blue cheese and topped with toasted walnuts pair well with grilled steak or chicken.

रेसिपी सामग्री:

1. 1 pound green beans, trimmed

2. 1/4 cup water

3. 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

4. 1/4 teaspoon salt

5. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

6. 1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese

7. 1/3 cup toasted chopped walnuts (see Tip)

रेसिपी चरण:

1. Bring green beans and water to a boil in a large skillet. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until the beans are just tender, 3 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes more.

2. Add oil, salt and pepper to the pan and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Transfer the beans to a large bowl and toss with blue cheese until well coated. Sprinkle each serving with walnuts.

Recipe Tip:

To toast chopped or sliced nuts, stir constantly in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.
