CUBAN GREEN BEANS image

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups green beans trimmed
1/2 cup cubed ham (optional)
Olive oil for sautéing
2 cloves garlic chopped fine
1 medium onion chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, place the green beans in two quarts of boiling water, with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, uncovered, until fully cooked -- about six minutes. Remove from heat and drain. Sauté the onion in olive oil until the onions begin to get limp. Add crushed garlic and ham and cook for two additional minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in fresh lime juice. Pour sauce over cooked green beans and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle chopped fresh cilantro on top and serve.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for my liking. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

These green beans were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more garlic and chili powder next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The beans were cooked perfectly and the sauce was very flavorful. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.

I'm always looking for new ways to cook green beans, and this recipe definitely delivered. The beans were perfectly tender and the sauce was delicious. I served them over rice and they were a huge hit with my family.
