Instructions

  • Prepare the ingredients: Rinse 1 pound green beans under cold water to remove any dirt or residue. Trim off the ends.Wipe 8 ounces mushrooms clean with a damp paper towel. Use a sharp knife to slice them into your preferred thickness. Thicker mushrooms will produce a meatier bite. Make an ice bath for the green beans, fill a large bowl with ice cubes and cold water; set aside. Dice 3 tablespoons shallots
  • Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Carefully place the beans into the boiling water. Turn the heat off and let them sit in the water for about 3 minutes; they should be bright green. Carefully remove them from the water using tongs and place them into a bowl of ice water. Leave them in the ice water until they are completely cool; drain and pat dry.
  • Add olive oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the mushrooms and shallots. Reduce to medium heat; cook until the mushrooms start to turn soft.
  • Add the blanched green beans and toss. Adjust flavor with salt and pepper.

Notes

Store leftovers once cooled to room temperature in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on top of the stove. Or enjoy them cold tossed in a salad or vinaigrette.
Serve sauteed green beans with any entree such as chicken, beef, tofu, or seafood.
