Sauteed Green Beans With Shallots image

This is great to make at Thanksgiving...it tastes as good at room temperature as it does when it is hot, so you can move it off the stove to make room for more cooking! It's also quick to make, so its perfect for weeknight dinners. From Southern Living, but altered to my tastes.

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12 ounce) package frozen green beans, steam-in-bag type
2 shallots, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare the green beans according to the package instructions.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet. Saute the shallots over medium to medium high heat, depending on your preference of crispness. (I like them crisp). Add minced garlic if you are using it. (Add when shallots are almost to your desired level of doneness).

The shallots add a really nice depth of flavor to the green beans. I also like to add a bit of garlic powder for extra flavor.
