Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Heat olive oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering. (2 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Reduce the heat to medium, add the trimmed green beans, and stir to coat with the oil. (1 minute)

03

Step
1 mins

Cover the wok or skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are almost tender-crisp.

04

Step
2 mins

Season with garlic salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and dried minced onion. Stir well to distribute the seasonings. (1 minute)

05

Step
5 mins

Add the marinated cocktail onions along with their liquid to the beans. Stir gently to combine. (1 minute)

06

Step

Continue cooking for 3-5 minutes, or until the beans are tender and the cocktail onions are heated through. The liquid should slightly reduce and create a light glaze. (4 minutes)

07

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy!

For a richer flavor, try using roasted garlic instead of garlic powder. Simply mash a clove or two of roasted garlic and add it along with the minced onion.
If you prefer a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the other seasonings.
Feel free to experiment with different types of marinated onions. Sweet onions or balsamic-glazed onions would also be delicious in this recipe.
To ensure even cooking, be sure to trim the green beans to a uniform size.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave before serving.
