How to Make Green Beans In Dill Walnut Sauce
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
- Add 1 pound of trimmed green beans to the boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Do not overcook!
- Immediately drain the green beans and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and preserve their vibrant green color. Set aside to drain completely.
- While the beans are cooling, prepare the sauce: In a food processor or blender, combine 2 tablespoons chopped scallions, 1/2 cup packed fresh dill, 1/4 cup packed fresh parsley, 1/2 cup walnuts, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Process until smooth and creamy.
- With the motor running, slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil until a thick sauce forms.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Gently toss the drained green beans with the dill walnut sauce, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Serve immediately at room temperature, or chill for later. The flavors will meld beautifully as it chills!
