Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Green Beans

    Trim the ends of the green beans and blanch them in boiling water for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain the beans again and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the Calabrian chili paste, lemon juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine and Serve

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the blanched green beans with the dressing and fresh oregano leaves. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
