Finding good sides is always a bit of a struggle. I usually don’t want to put too much effort into them, as I like to be able to focus on the main dish. But at the same time, I want them to be delicious and nutritious. That’s why I love these green beans. They are a super quick and easy side dish, and they taste incredible.

 

Techniques for delicious Chili Garlic Green Beans

 

  • Do not add oil when charring the green beans, this helps the sauce stick to the beans.
  • Spice to taste. Thai chilis are pretty spicy, so be careful not to add too many. 1 has a nice kick, 3 makes it very spicy.
