Thread: Stir-Fried Beans with Broccoli

This just came in the marketing junk I get from Blue Cross & Blue Shield insurance... but it actually sounds kinda tasty. I'll move it once I get a chance to taste-test it!

Stir-Fried Beans with Broccoli
Makes: 4 Servings
Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
1 pound broccoli, asparagus, or any kind of green, rinsed and trimmed
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 chopped scallions
1 tablespoon minced garlic, preferably roasted
2 teaspoons smoked or fresh chiles, or to taste
½ cup chopped dried or fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons soy sauce
½ cup vegetable stock or water, plus more as needed
1 cup edamame or lima beans, fresh or thawed
Directions:

• Cut the broccoli into florets, cut the asparagus into 2-inch pieces, or roughly chop greens
• Put the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the vegetable, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until coated in oil and just beginning to soften — about three minutes.
• Add the scallions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, just another minute.
• Add the chiles and mushrooms, stir, then add the remaining ingredients.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms plump up, the liquid is reduced a bit, and the vegetables and beans are crisp-tender — about five minutes more. If you prefer more liquid for tossing with pasta or rice, add a little more. Be careful not to overcook.
• Remove from heat, taste and adjust the seasoning, and serve.

Mmmmmm that DOES sound good!
