Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green beans, salt, and pepper.
  2. Cook the green beans, stirring often, until they just begin to soften, for about 5 minutes.
  3. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the hot sauce, garlic, and honey.
  4. Cook, stirring, until the beans are tender-crisp and coated in the sauce, 1-2 more minutes.
  5. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If using any salt other than Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt, including Morton kosher salt, use half the amount listed.
  • When cooking hot peppers, including hot pepper sauce, you'll create fumes that can be quite irritating, depending on how sensitive you are. So keep your kitchen well-ventilated and your range hood fan running on high. 
  • The leftovers keep quite well in the fridge, in an airtight container, for 3-4 days. Gently reheat them in the microwave at 50% power. I admit to sometimes snacking on them cold, straight from the fridge! They're surprisingly delicious this way. Kind of like spicy antipasti.
