Caramelized Onion Green Beans

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 1 large onion, sliced

  • 1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed

  • Salt

Directions

In a medium size skillet over medium-high heat, heat the EVOO and butter and add the onion to the pan. Let cook until light brown and caramelized, about 20 minutes.

While the onions are caramelizing, cook the green beans for 5 minutes in 1 inch of boiling water, covered. Drain the beans and toss them in the skillet with the finished onions. Season with salt and pepper and toss until combined and hot. This is one of many "Yum-o!" recipes – it's good and good for you.
