Pan Fried Green Beans

- #84447
ingredients
1 1/2 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and snapped
garlic powder, to taste
onion powder, to taste
salt and pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
directions
In a stainless steel pot over medium-high heat, combine green beans, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Cook, covered, until the beans begin to sweat. Remove lid and stir occasionally until beans are tender.
When the beans and spices have begun to "burn" on the bottom of the pan, which will lend a grilled flavor, stir in the olive oil and turn off heat. Cover, and let stand a few minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pan to incorporate the "burnt" spices.
Beans should have a dark, caramel color, but not black.

The flavor was good but the execution of the recipe just didn't work out well. The beans don't really sweat in the initial cooking stage. The spices burn but the beans don't - and it's not a grilled flavor it gives, it's a burned flavor. And the beans shriveled up and looked unappealing. Lastly, I'm not sure why the oil is stirred in at the end - it hasn't had time to meld with any of the spices so you have an odd olive oil taste on top of everything. While I appreciate the unusual cooking method, it just didn't work as well as it sounds. I'd stick with the usual way of sauteing the beans and spices in the oil from the beginning. Flavor-wise it was edible, but it could have been better.
