String beans with bread crumbs
Ingredients
- 1 lb string beans
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup Italian bread crumbs ⓘ
Instructions
- In a pot boil well salted water.
- Alternatively you can use a steaming basket.
- Add the bean and cook little under the desired tenderness.
- I like my beans crunchy so as soon as they turn bright green they are done.
- While the beans are cooking prepare a bowl with water and ice.
- With slotted spoon transfer the beans to ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Remove when cold and spread on paper towel.
- In a large skillet melt butter, when foamy add bread crumbs.
- Stir to coat and add beans.
- Shake skillet vigorously to coat the beans
- Stir few times until beans are warm again, serve with choice of meat.
- You can squeeze lemon on it while on a plate.
