Tips:

  • Choose vibrant green beans: Look for beans that are a deep, dark green color and have a slight snap when you bend them. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Buy the best cherry tomatoes you can find: Look for tomatoes that are plump and have a deep red color. Avoid tomatoes that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the beans: Green beans should be cooked until they are just tender, but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked beans will be mushy and bland.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The beans and tomatoes will start to lose their flavor if they sit for too long.

This green beans with cherry tomatoes recipe is a simple but delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
