Wish I knew where I got this recipe! Smells great while cooking. I will try to use something to make it easier to remove the red pepper flakes (maybe strain it carefully into another pan). I use nice pinch of salt and about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. black pepper.
Ingredients:
1 lb fresh green beans, cut into 3-inch pieces
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 -2 large tomato, chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons basil
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon oregano
salt
pepper
parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Put beans in a large pot of boiling water and boil 5-7 minutes, drain and then plunge into ice water to stop the cooking.
2. Set the beans aside.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add crushed red pepper and cook for 1 minute.
4. Remove pepper flakes and add garlic, tomatoes, and seasonings, except the parmesan cheese.
5. Now turn heat to low and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
6. Add the beans to the mixture and heat through, about 8-10 minutes.
7. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve.
