Directions
Wok or Skillet Asian-Style Fresh Green Beans,To save some time cook the green beans ahead, place in a zippered plastic bag and refrigerate until ready to use. Make certain to pat the green beans dry using a paper towel before sauting them. If you like spicy like my family does add in 1-2 teaspoons dried chili flakes when sauting the garlic. Just to let you know, I tried this recipe using Green Giant brand frozen whole beans and it was not as successful as using the fresh beans. Prep time does not include boiling the beans. This is a really great recipe for fresh summer green beans!,This was fantastic. Better than any similar green bean dish I’ve ordered in Chinese restaurants. Easy and delicious.
