This is an easy-to-make green bean side dish that tastes absolutely wonderful with anything. It is even good over some steamed white rice with a little sauce drizzled over it. So yummy and quick to make!

I can sum up this recipe with one word, "Wow!" Who knew that such simple ingredients could taste so good. Shhh...don't tell anyone I add a little extra chili sauce. This recipe goes into my TNT file. Thank you for the recipe Eireann.

Very good flavor and easy to make. My experience is that they took about 20 minutes to cook on medium heat. We like tender-crisp veggies but these were still hard after 10 minutes.
