Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 lb fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 shallot, diced
  • 1 tsp minced garlic

Other Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp teriyaki sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and trim the green beans, cutting them into 1-inch pieces to ensure even cooking.
  2. Prepare Mushrooms and Shallot: Clean and slice the mushrooms and dice the shallot finely for consistent sautéing.
  3. Heat Butter: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until melted and shimmering.
  4. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced shallot and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and translucent, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  5. Cook Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes until they soften and release their moisture.
  6. Add Green Beans: Toss the trimmed green beans into the skillet along with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.
  7. Sauté Green Beans: Stir to coat the beans evenly with butter and sauté for 5-7 minutes, cooking until they are tender yet retain a slight crispness.
  8. Add Teriyaki Sauce: Drizzle the teriyaki sauce over the vegetables and toss well to evenly coat everything.
  9. Caramelize Sauce: Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and caramelize, enhancing the flavor.
  10. Season: Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
  11. Serve: Serve the teriyaki green beans warm as a delicious side dish or over rice for a light, satisfying meal.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top before serving.
  • You can substitute teriyaki sauce with a soy sauce and honey mixture if desired.
  • Ensure not to overcook green beans to maintain their crunchiness and vibrant color.
  • For a vegan version, replace butter with olive oil or a plant-based margarine.
