Servings: 4

Ingredients

Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons
Salt
1/2 teaspoon, or to taste
Red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon, adjust for spice preference
Sesame oil
1 teaspoon
Soy sauce
1 tablespoon
Fresh ginger
1 tablespoon, minced
Garlic
2 cloves, minced
Green beans
1 pound, trimmed

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering.
  2. Add the trimmed green beans to the hot oil and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, allowing them to blister and char slightly.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and ginger, stirring quickly to prevent burning.
  4. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, then sprinkle in the red pepper flakes and salt. Continue to stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the green beans are tender-crisp and well coated with the sauce.
  5. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
  6. Remove from heat, transfer to a serving dish, and serve hot as a delightful side dish.
