Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Trim the Green Beans

    Wash the green beans under cold water and trim the ends by snapping them off or cutting them with a knife.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely using a knife or garlic press.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Green Beans

    In a large skillet, melt the sweet cream butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the trimmed green beans and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

  2. 4

    Add Garlic and Seasonings

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then, pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, and mix well to coat the green beans evenly.

  3. 5

    Finish with Seasoning

    Season the green beans with black pepper and red pepper flakes to taste. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate and Serve

    Transfer the sautéed green beans to a serving dish and serve warm as a side dish.
