These are yummo! We often roast green beans in the oven with olive oil and sea salt. I needed a new idea. I bought fresh dill at the store and was just going to roast them with fresh dill. I decided to search and found this amazing recipe at Eating Well. These were so easy and such a nice, side dish ... with our grilled chicken and BLT salad.
Lemon-Dill Green Beans - adapted from Eating Well
1 lb of fresh green beans - trimmed
4 tsp chopped fresh dill
1 Tbsp minced shallots ( I didn't have so I used green onions)
1 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp whole grain mustard
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Bring an inch of water to a boil in a large pan, fitted with a steamer basket. Add green beans, cover and cook until tender-crisp, about 5 - 7 minutes. Remove from heat.
Meanwhile..... in a bowl, whisk dill, shallots, lemon juice, mustard, salt and pepper together. Toss with the warm green beans. Let stand about ten minutes before serving, to blend the flavors.
