Spicy Green Beans
These beans go well with simple meats, such as turkey, or cheese dishes. They add color and just a mild heat to any meal. For a different taste, I’ve also used this recipe substituting zucchini squash for the beans and serrano chiles for more heat.

Ingredients


  • ½ cup chopped onions

  • 1 clove garlic, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 3 green New Mexico chiles, skinned, seeds removed, chopped

  • 1 pound French-cut green beans

  • 2 tomatoes, peeled and chopped

  • Salt to taste



Instructions


In a heavy skillet over medium heat, saute the onion and garlic in the oil until soft. Add the chiles and continue to saute for an additional 2 or 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients along with 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until the beans are done.
