Brown Butter-Glazed Green Beans
Recipe from Food Network
Ingredients
- Kosher salt
- 1 1/2 pounds thin green beans or haricots verts, trimmed
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 sprig oregano, plus 1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped oregano leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more for topping
- Flaky salt, for topping
Method
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the green beans until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes, then drain and cool them in ice water. Drain again.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the oregano sprig and red pepper flakes and swirl the pot until the butter browns, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Add the beans and 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt. Toss for 2 to 3 minutes, until the beans are hot and glazed.
- Remove the oregano sprig, toss in the chopped oregano, and finish with flaky salt and additional red pepper flakes.
