Favorite Green Beans

By 4 Comments

These are my favorite green beans because they are quick and full of flavor.  

I always use frozen organic green beans for this recipe because they don’t require as long of a cooking time.  Southerners, traditionally, like their green beans softened, not steamed to a crisp texture.  I enjoy them both ways, but this method is definitely my favorite.  Let the beans thaw in the pan for an hour or so before cooking and drain the excess liquid.  They get a little caramelized with the sauteing and it really brings out the great flavor.  Enjoy~
