CARAMELIZED ONION GREEN BEANS
This recipe came from a Woman's World magazine. It is very good and has a very pretty presentation. (**Updating to say that I made this recipe with canned cut green beans. I simply drained them and heated them in a little broth for about 3-5 minutes and added them to the recipe instead of fresh green beans. They were very good this way...a nice way to dress up canned green beans.)

Steps:
- In skillet, melt 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, 7-10 minutes. Add sugar, salt, and Cajun seasoning. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring often, until onion is soft and golden brown, 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans; cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. (Next time, I will cook longer as mine were not as done as I would have liked them.) Drain well, then add to onion with remaining 1 Tbsp butter. Cook, stirring, until heated through, 1 minute.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are a deep green color and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or have yellowed tips.
- Trim the green beans: Remove the stem ends of the green beans. You can also trim the strings from the beans if they are tough.
- Use a large skillet: This will help to ensure that the green beans cook evenly.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help to caramelize the onions and prevent them from burning.
- Add the onions and cook until they are caramelized: This will take about 15 minutes. Stir the onions occasionally to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Add the green beans and cook until they are tender: This will take about 10 minutes. Stir the green beans occasionally to ensure that they cook evenly.
- Season the green beans with salt and pepper: To taste.
- Serve the green beans immediately: These beans are best served hot.
