Ingredients

1 lb green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 tbsp olive oil, divided
¼ cup chopped shallots
1½ tbsp minced garlic
1 tbsp minced peeled fresh ginger

Directions

Heat 1/2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Continue cooking the green beans for another 2-3 minutes until they are heated through and well-coated with the sauce.
Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the Sichuan Green Beans to a serving dish.
Serve the Sichuan Green Beans hot as a side dish or with steamed rice as a main course.
