Green Bean, Red Pepper, and Shallot Sauté

Green Bean, Red Pepper, and Shallot Sauté

by Pam on December 16, 2012

My heart goes out to all who have been affected by the horrific and senseless violence this past week in Connecticut and Oregon. My thoughts & prayers are with you all!!!

On a happier note, I was recently contacted by Red Tricycle[1] who informed me that I won the award for the 2012 Most Awesome Awards for Fantastic Family Recipes.[2] Thanks for voting for me – you are the best and most loyal readers a girl could hope for. I really appreciate your support and I feel very honored to have won!

On with the recipe:

I made this sauté to go with the Long Grain and Wild Rice with Mushrooms and Shallots[3] and the Mustard-Maple Chicken Thighs[4] and they all paired nicely together. This side dish seriously took me less than 10 minutes to make and it tasted healthy, flavorful, and delicious. It was also a great way to use up the extra green beans and red bell pepper in my refrigerator.

Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the tablespoon of water along with the green beans and red bell pepper; cover with a lid and steam for 3 minutes, or until just fork tender but still a little crisp. Remove the lid, add the olive oil to the pan along with the shallot and minced garlic. Cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste.  Serve immediately. Enjoy.
