Green Beans With Ginger and Cashews

Planning on making this for Thanksgiving dinner this year. I found the recipe over at Epicurious.com

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 lbs green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 cups)
• 4  tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3  tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped (about a 2 1/2-inch piece)
• 1⁄2 cup  vegetable stock or 1⁄2 cup  chicken stock or 1⁄2 cup  turkey stock
• 1  cup  salted roasted cashews, coarsely chopped
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1. In large pot boiling salted water, cook beans until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse in colander under cold water then pat dry (can be prepared up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated, wrapped in paper towels, in plastic bags).
2. In 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, heat butter until hot but not smoking. Add ginger and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in green beans and stock and cook, stirring often, until liquid is almost completely evaporated, about 3 to 6 minutes. Before serving stir in Cashews to distribute then transfer to serving dish and serve immediately .
