Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 0.5 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 0.25 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 0.5 teaspoon white sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Method
 

  1. Combine green beans and water in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender-crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and sesame oil; cook, stirring frequently, until garlic is fragrant and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
  2. Mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and red pepper flakes together in a small bowl. Pour over beans and cook until sauce thickens enough to coat beans, 3 to 5 minutes.
