How to Make Asian Style Green Beans
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 4-6 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
- Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them sit for 2 minutes.
- Drain the green beans thoroughly.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add the sliced green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the green beans and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
- Cook for 1 minute, allowing the vegetables to heat through.
- Stir in the oyster sauce and black pepper. Cook for another 30 seconds, until heated through and the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Garnish with slivered almonds, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
