One-Pan Green Beans Almondine
This Green Beans Almondine recipe is made in one pan and is ready in less than 20 minutes! This side dish is made with fresh French green beans that are sautéed to perfect tenderness, paired with toasted, buttery sliced almonds with garlic and shallots. It's an irresistible combination!
Ingredients
- 4 Tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 shallot finely chopped, small
- 2 garlic finely chopped, cloves
- 1/2 /2 cup almond raw, slices
- 1/4 /4 cup white wine or water, or vegetable stock
- salt to taste
- 1 pound green beans trimmed as needed, fresh, French style
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallot with a pinch of salt and cook for 1 minute. Stir in garlic. Add almond slices and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, adding an additional pinch of salt as needed.
- Deglaze the pan with the liquid of choice (wine or stock), scraping up any brown bits as needed. Add the green beans and toss them together. Cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes until tender, stirring every few minutes to ensure the beans are sauteeing evenly and the shallot doesn't burn. Be sure to taste test for salt levels.
- Once the green beans are tender but still have a slight crisp, they're ready. Place in a serving bowl and top with all of the shallot and almond mixture. A pinch of flakey sea salt makes a wonderful garnish, too.
