Sweet and Spicy Glazed Green Beans
A made easy dish with an Asian and Thai flavor.
Ingredients
Directions
- In a wok or medium skillet heat sesame oil. When at a sizzle, add minced garlic and onion, stirring occasionally until opaque.
- Add fresh green beans, salt, and red pepper. (If using frozen green beans, make sure there is no frost on them before putting them in the skillet).
- Let cook for 3-4 minutes until tender.
- Add brown sugar and continue to mix all ingredients, letting the mixture cook for another 1-2 minutes to let the brown sugar caramelize with the chopped onion and garlic.
- Remove from heat and serve while still hot.
- Note: you can add more or less of all ingredients to suit your taste.
