Ready In: 55 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 teaspoons sweet paprika
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1⁄8 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 3 garlic cloves, mashed to a puree or 3 garlic, minced finely
- 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, I use fresh in season
- 3⁄4 lb green beans, trimmed and cut in half
- 1 cup diced carrot (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Directions
- Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, 2 minutes. Add beef; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook 3 minutes, stirring, until no longer pink.
- Add garlic and spices; cook 1 minute. Add tomatoes, green beans and carrots; cover skillet and bring to boil.
- Reduce heat to medium and simmer 15 minutes, stirring once. Stir in lemon.
- Make sure that the green beans are soft, no crisp green beans are served here! I have also done this recipe with canned green beans and have found it to be very good and a good way to have green beans out of season. Use 2 cans if using canned beans.
