Ingredients

3 servings
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 pound green beans (ends trimmed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoon soy sauce (or another pinch of kosher salt)
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (apple cider vinegar, or freshly squeezed lemon juice)

Steps

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat until it’s good and hot. Add the oil, swirl to coat, then add the green beans, spreading them into an even layer.

  2. Add the salt, then cover (if your pan doesn’t have a lid, cover it with a baking sheet). Cook for 2 minutes, stir and spread the green beans back into an even layer, the recover and continue cooking 2 minutes more.

  3. Stir in the soy sauce. Recover and cook until the green beans are crisp-tender and browning in spots, about 4 to 6 minutes more. Stir them every 2 minutes to make sure they brown evenly. If at any point the green beans start to burn, reduce the heat and add a little water to the pan as needed. Watch the green beans carefully to make sure they don't overcook and become mushy.

  4. Remove from the heat. Stir in the vinegar. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired. Enjoy hot.
