Sesame Green Beans | Garnish & Glaze

Sometimes it’s hard to think of sides for meals, especially ones that require little work, aren’t boring and bland, and are healthy.  These Sesame Green Beans take less than 10 minutes but are busting with flavor.  They can be added as a side to almost any meat or Asian dish.

Sesame Green Beans

Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time3 mins
Total Time8 mins
Servings: 4
Author: Garnish and Glaze

Ingredients

  • 1 pound green beans
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds*
  • Garlic salt, to taste

Instructions

  • In a small dish, mix butter and soy sauce together. Set aside.
  • Wash and trim beans.
  • Steam beans in a covered pot with about 1/2 inch water for 1-2 minutes or until crisp tender. Drain any excess water. (If not serving immediately, rinse beans in ice water to stop the cooking process and prevent color change.)
  • Toss beans with butter mixture, sesame seeds, and garlic salt. Serve immediately.

Notes

*Toast sesame seeds by placing on a foil lined baking sheet and broil for 1-2 minutes, give the pan a shake and cook 1-2 more minutes.

    could I use sliced almonds instead of the sesame seed?

    Soy sauce + butter is such an outrageously great flavor combination. It’s fabulous on every vegetable – especially mushrooms! I’ve also been known to add both to my oatmeal and top it off w/ a poached egg.

      Butter always makes everything better! I have only had sweet oatmeal but I’ll have to try it with an egg.
