Haricots Verts

My husband absolutely LOVES these. –Keely

Ingredients

1 lb frozen whole green beans
¾ cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons minced shallots (or onions)
¾ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons sticks butter, divided
kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper

Instructions

Partially thaw beans. Bring chicken stock, shallots, salt and 2 tablespoons of butter to boil. Add beans. Cover and boil slowly for 5-6 minutes, tossing occasionally until beans are just tender. Remove cover and rapidly boil off most of the remaining liquid.

Liberally salt and pepper, distribute remaining butter over them and serve.

Tips

Works beautifully with fresh green beans, when in season.
