Grilled Green Beans with Butter & Almonds
After a long day at the farm, my favorite way to spend an evening is with a quick dinner in our backyard (where work and farm talk is never allowed). We fire up the grill and keep dinner simple with an easy side that can be prepared alongside the grilled meats. It is as effortless as it is delicious.
Ingredients
1 pound green beans
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup almonds, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons salted butter
Directions
Preheat the grill to cook over high direct heat.
Toss the green beans with olive oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl until well-coated.
Place the green beans in a grill basket over high heat. Cook, flipping occasionally with tongs, until blackened and blistered throughout, about 20 minutes. Move green beans off heat.
Add almonds to a cast-iron skillet and toast them over high heat, about 3-5 minutes. Add the butter and let it melt. Then add the charred beans, and toss with tongs to combine.
