Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds fresh green beans (ends trimmed)
1/4 cup + 2 teaspoons coconut oil* (divided (can also use vegetable oil or canola oil))
2 pounds shallots (peeled and sliced thin)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook for one minute. Lift the beans out of the water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to cool and stop the cooking. Drain and set aside.
  • Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil. When melted and shimmering-hot, add shallots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and starting to turn golden, about 10 minutes. Add the smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir and cook until the shallots are well-browned, 2-4 additional minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain the excess oil. Set aside.
  • Allow the saute pan to cool enough so you can wipe out the excess oil. Return to the stove over medium heat. Add 2 teaspoons coconut oil. When hot, add the blanched green beans, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 1-2 minutes. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to a platter and top with smoky shallots. Serve.
