Ingredients
- 1 lb. fresh green beans trimmed
- 1 shallot bulb about 5-6 cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- sea salt to taste
- fresh ground pepper to taste
- 3 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 2 Tablespoons toasted almond slices
Instructions
- Heat a large dry skillet over medium heat, add almond slices and cook until toasted, about 5-6 minutes or until almonds are golden. Remove almonds from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add olive oil and heat over high heat until melted. Add in shallot slices, turn heat down to medium-low. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook shallots until caramelized, stirring frequently throughout the cooking process. This should take about 15 minutes and the shallots should turn golden brown in color.
- Meanwhile, cook the green beans by bringing a saucepan of water with a pinch of sea salt to a boil. Once water is boiling, add in green beans and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the beans are bight green in color and tender crisp.
- Drain and transfer the beans into the skillet with the caramelized shallots. Toss to combine.
- The oil and shallots will coat the beans. Add in chopped parsley and lemon juice. Season with sea salt and pepper. Heat for another 3-4 minutes or until beans are warm. Transfer beans to a large dish or platter, top with toasted almonds and serve.
Notes
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat over the stovetop, in the oven or in the microwave until green beans are warm.
