Ginger Green Beans


Fresh Start:
Low Fat Food and Menus Day to Day
by Julee Rosso, 1996, Crown Publishing

“This is a favorite Chinese-style vegetable of mine, pared down to have a bare minimum of fat.”

Serves 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon plus 1 1/2 teaspoons finely minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon finely minced garlic
1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed [or substitute frozen green beans]
1 1/2 cups low-fat, low-sodium chicken broth
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

1.  In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until lightly browned.
2.  Add the beans and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the chicken broth and continue cooking, tossing, for about 5 minutes, until the liquid evaporates and the beans are tender. Season with pepper and serve immediately.
