directions

  • In a small bowl, stir together the teriyaki sauce, honey, and butter.
  • Fill a bowl with cold water and ice cubes.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the lemon juice. Drop in the beans and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until beans are bright green. Drain the beans in a colander and then plunge them into the iced water. Drain again and set aside.
  • In a skillet, cook the bacon until very crispy, crumble and set aside. Saute the bell pepper and onion in the hot bacon fat for 2 minutes. Add the beans, cashews, and bacon to the skillet. Add the teriyaki-honey sauce and toss gently.

  1. The teriyaki sauce really adds a lot of flavor to this. Made as posted. Served this with a meat loaf, and baked potato. Made for I Recommend
     
  2. Loved these, so much flavor going there that I omitted the bacon, no regrets.
     
  3. Wonderful dish for entertaining, especially Christmas, this recipe permits fine-tuning of kitchen timing. Yes, I drool over great veggies! I paired this with Recipe #283215 #283215 which was a mistake as both had definite tastes in incompatible directions: Mandarin vs Italian/Greek. Serve this with a plainer meat, or stir-fry some tofu to make this a complete meal. Thanks for sharing this recipe, PickyEater. Made for Secret Ingredient Tag, QI=Butter.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a slightly "over-50" guy living with my wife and 2 kids in Columbus Ohio. I have been a picky eater for as long as I can remember. I'm trying to improve my cooking skills more or less in self defense. It's a control thing ... if I make it and I don't like it, I can whine and complain to myself :-)! Since cooking is not my wife's favorite activity, I'm looking for recipes I can enjoy preparing and eating while lightening her load a bit. Hopefully a win-win situation.
