Zesty Dijon Green Beans Recipes

PAN-ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH DIJON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk in ¼ cup of the olive oil and lemon zest and set the vinaigrette aside.
• Heat 1½ teaspoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-​high heat. Add the red onion and cook until golden, 7 to 9 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Return the pan to the heat, add the remaining 1½ teaspoons of olive oil, and spread out the beans in a single layer as much as possible. Allow the beans to cook without moving until they begin to blister and start to turn brown in spots. Stir and continue to cook to the desired tenderness, 8 to 10 minutes. Just before turning off the heat, add the onion back to the pan and stir to combine.
• Remove the pan from the heat and pour the vinaigrette directly into the pan. Stir to combine, then let stand for 10 to 15 minutes so the beans can absorb some of the dressing. Serve warm or make ahead and serve as a cold salad.
