These Szechuan green beans taste wonderful and are almost as good as takeout Chinese green beans! Their spicy flavor is wonderful with ham and a baked yam.

Ingredients

½ pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup water
1 tablespoon minced ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
½ teaspoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

Combine green beans and water in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender-crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and sesame oil; cook, stirring frequently, until garlic is fragrant and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
Mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Pour over beans and cook until sauce thickens enough to coat beans, 3 to 5 minutes.
