January 16, 2025

A light and quick one-pot dinner. The parboiling method will give your green beans a fabulous crunch and vivid color.

 

Yield: 4–6 servings

 

Ingredients:

1 lb. fresh green beans, stem-ends trimmed

2 tablespoons sesame oil

1½–2 lb. chicken breast, cut in nugget-size pieces

4 frozen cubes garlic

1 teaspoon kosher salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

¾ cup cashews, checked

⅓ cup sesame teriyaki sauce

 

Directions:

Bring a pot half-filled with water to a rolling boil.

Add green beans.

Cook for 1 minute, until bright green and barely tender.

Immediately drain green beans and rinse with cold water.

Heat sesame oil in a wide pot or skillet.

Add chicken; cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, until cooked through.

Add green beans, garlic, seasonings, cashews, and teriyaki sauce, tossing to combine.

Cook just until hot.
