Green Beans With Lime and Red Onions¶

| 6 | 0 minutes |
Ingredients¶
1 pound green beans
3 tablespoons (43 g) water
2 tablespoons (25 g) extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic cloves
1.25 teaspoons (2 g) ground coriander
0.5 teaspoon (3 g) fine sea salt
1 pinch crushed red pepper
1 lime
0.5 red onion
0.5 cup (21 g) chopped cilantro
Cookware¶
- 1 large skillet
- 1 platter
Instructions¶
Step 1¶
Combine green beans (stem ends trimmed) and water in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring and shaking the pan, until the beans are bright green and the water has evaporated from the skillet, 3 to 6 minutes.
Step 2¶
Raise the heat to high and add the extra-virgin olive oil (more for drizzling), garlic cloves (thinly sliced), ground coriander, fine sea salt (more to taste), and crushed red pepper. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the green beans are just cooked through but still crisp-tender.
Step 3¶
Stir in the lime (finely grated zest and juice of ½ lime). Taste for seasoning and add more salt or lime juice, as needed.
Step 4¶
Slide the green beans onto a platter and top with red onion (thinly sliced) and chopped cilantro (or parsley or mint). Drizzle with more olive oil. Serve hot or at room temperature.
