Sweet and Spicy Green Beans

Submitted by LK Devildog

"I found this on "allrecipes.com" and it's delicious and easy. I did not steam the green beans first, just put them in the oil and stir-fried for about 5 minutes or so, then added the liquid ingredients. I like my beans a little crisper. I also used Texas Pete sauce instead of chili sauce. Any hot sauce will do."
