How to Make Crispy Green Bean Fries Tgi Friday's By Todd Wilbur

  1. **Prepare the Wasabi Cucumber Ranch Dip:** Combine all dip ingredients (see below) in a blender. Blend until completely smooth. Pour into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve. The dip will thicken as it chills.
  2. **Blanch the Green Beans:** In a large pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 15 minutes. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain well.
  3. **Prepare the Coating:** In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg and milk. In a separate shallow dish, place the flour. In a third shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, ¾ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, ½ teaspoon onion powder, and ½ teaspoon garlic powder.
  4. **Coat the Green Beans:** Remove a handful of blanched green beans from the ice water and gently shake off excess moisture. Dredge the beans in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip each bean into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the coated beans on a plate.
  5. **Fry the Green Beans:** Heat 1 ½ inches of shortening or oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the coated green beans in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the skillet. Fry for 1 ½ minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. **Drain and Serve:** Remove the fried green beans from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with the chilled wasabi cucumber ranch dip. Enjoy!
