CARAMELIZED ONION GREEN BEANS



Caramelized Onion Green Beans image

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.)

Provided by Karabea

Categories     Onions

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, sliced, about 2 cups
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dry cajun seasoning (I used blacken seasoning)
1 1/2 lbs 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 bright green and snap easily when bent. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Trim the green beans: Cut off the ends of the beans, where they were attached to the plant. You can also remove the strings from the beans, if desired.
  • Caramelize the red onions slowly: Cook the onions over medium-low heat until they are soft and golden brown. This will take about 15-20 minutes. Stir the onions frequently to prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the green beans, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Season the green beans to taste: Salt and pepper are classic seasonings for green beans, but you can also add other herbs and spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.

Conclusion:

Green beans with caramelized red onions is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and savory flavors of the caramelized onions complement the fresh, crisp green beans perfectly. This dish is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy choice for your next meal.
