Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Lunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
Salt
1 1/2 pounds long beans, stem ends trimmed
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons fennel seeds

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread the walnuts on a baking pan. Toast until fragrant, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer nuts to a plate to cool.

Tips:

  • To save time, use frozen green beans. Just thaw them before cooking.
