1 tablespoon vegetable oil or as needed

1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken broth or water(start with less, add more as needed)

5-6 cloves garlic minced

Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, season with salt & pepper and toss with cornstarch.

Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken in small batches and cook until no pink remains, about 5-6 minutes. Set chicken aside in a bowl.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. 

Reheat leftovers in the microwave until heated through. 

Green Beans and Mushrooms

 

We always needs our vegetables right? I am always looking for new ideas to create good tasting recipes with them too. I like green beans and mushrooms and put together like this they are delicious.

Serves 6

What you Need:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 large shallots, sliced thinly
8 ounces cremini or button mushrooms, sliced thinly
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 pounds green beans, stem ends trimmed (you can use frozen)
1/4 cup chicken, turkey, or vegetable broth

How to Make it:

Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat, swirling it around to coat the pan. When the butter is fully melted and has stopped foaming, add the shallots, mushrooms, and salt. Sauté until all of their liquid has evaporated from the mushrooms and they are beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.

Add the green beans to the pan and stir to evenly distribute the shallots and mushrooms. Pour the broth over the vegetables and cover the pan. Let cook, covered, until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand, still covered, for another 5 minutes.

Serve the green beans in a serving dish or shallow bowl, pouring all of the mushrooms and shallots over the top.

RECIPE NOTES

Keep the green beans warm in a slow cooker or covered dish in a warm oven for up to one hour.

Flavor variations: Basic green beans are what's expected for the holidays, but for weeknights you can dress up this dish with other flavors. Add Italian seasonings to the mushrooms and shallots for an herbed version, or add sesame oil and soy sauce for an Asian twist.

Green beans with Bacon

Everyone loves bacon and when you cook it and add it to green beans, everyone will want to eat these green beans. SO GOOD!

What you need:

4 bacon strips, diced

1/2 cup chopped onion

8 cups fresh green beans, trimmed

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

How to make it:

In a large skillet, cook bacon and onion over medium heat until bacon is crisp and onion is tender.

Meanwhile, place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain well. Add to bacon mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat.

Kitchen tips

To keep the beans moist and fresh, store them in your refrigerator’s crisper drawer in a plastic bag.

To choose green beans that are perfectly fresh, make sure the pods are firm and not too lumpy. If the beans inside are too big, the texture will be tough
