This is a quick and easy side dish that works well with grilled food. It was published in Cooking Light as part of a meal suggestion for grilled lamb. I like to add a squeeze of lemon juice over this just before serving. The original recipe calls for walnuts, but use what you like.

TOMATO-GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH CHICKPEAS, FETA AND DILL



Tomato-Green Bean Salad With Chickpeas, Feta and Dill image

This is a perfect salad for summer, when the market is chockablock with great produce. Use whatever tomatoes are sweetest, and feel free to add yellow wax beans or romano beans in addition to green beans. If your market has fresh shelling beans, use those instead of chickpeas. Plan ahead to soak dried chickpeas overnight. With a soak, they only take an hour to cook, and taste better than canned ones.

Kosher salt and black pepper

Pinch of dried oregano, for serving

Herb Green Beans with Feta image

Provided by Rebecca Jurkevich

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
Kosher salt
1/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons torn fresh mint leaves, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided
2 tablespoons matchstick-size strips lemon zest, divided
2 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice
2 ounces feta, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Working in two batches, cook beans in a large pot of boiling, generously salted water just until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, transfer to a colander set in a bowl of ice water; let cool. Drain well, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • Toss beans, oil, 2 tablespoons mint, 1 tablespoon dill, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and half of feta in a large bowl; season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. Serve beans topped with remaining feta, 2 tablespoons mint, 1 tablespoon dill, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
  • DO AHEAD: Beans can be cooked 1 day ahead. Wrap in a paper towel, place in a resealable plastic bag, and chill.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the green beans. Remove the ends of the beans and any tough strings from the sides.
  • Cook the green beans until they are tender-crisp. You can boil, steam, or sauté the beans, depending on your preference.
  • Flavor the green beans with herbs. Fresh herbs like basil, thyme, and oregano are a great way to add flavor to green beans.
  • Add feta cheese for a creamy, salty flavor. Crumbled feta cheese is a delicious addition to green beans.
  • Serve the green beans warm or at room temperature. Green beans can be served as a side dish or as a main course.
