Stir Fried Green Beans With Shrimp and Garlic image

Recipe by Eric Banh and Sophie Banh - Food & Wine Magazine - 01/2009, doubled and served with steamed Jasmine rice, this Vietnamese side dish becomes a great main course. :) Wine suggestions: Eric Banh's suggestion: Washington State Riesling. F&W pick: Floral, citrusy 2005 Badger Mountain Update:07/11/2009 - it seems that by just placing salt in the recipe too much is used, this happened to a friend of mine and I was going to put in a warning. There are many items that can make it salty; so wait, until after you add the beans and the low-sodium chicken broth - that is a good time to add the salt!! You can always add more.:)

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I used chicken instead. It turned out just as delicious!

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some chili flakes or Sriracha next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I always have some shrimp left over from making shrimp tacos or shrimp scampi, and this is a great way to use them up.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used a bit too much soy sauce. Otherwise, it was a great recipe and I will definitely be making it again.
