When we think of country cooking, we definitely think of it including lots of produce right from the field. This recipe came from a viewer who told me she likes to saute Italian green beans from her husband's garden with tomatoes that she dried from the fall harvest. It's very trendy today yet country-delicious. To make it really easy, we substituted frozen Italian beans and a jar of sun-dried tomatoes.
What You'll Need
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes, reconstituted and slivered (see Note)
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 (9 ounce each) packages frozen Italian green beans, thawed
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
What to Do
-
Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.
-
Add sun-dried tomatoes, walnuts, and garlic and saute 1 minute.
-
Add green beans and salt and saute 6 to 7 minutes, or until beans are tender. Serve immediately.
Notes
-
Sun-dried tomatoes also come packed in oil. If you want to use those, just drain them then saute in the oil instead of the butter.
