Ingredients
- 2 (16-ounce) bags whole frozen green beans
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 small yellow skinned onion, finely chopped
- 3/4 cup apple cider
- Salt and pepper
Directions
Put the beans in a large microwave safe bowl, loosely cover bowl with plastic food storage wrap and microwave on high 5 minutes. Uncover and stir the beans, then cover and microwave on high 4 to 7 minutes more, until desired doneness, from still-crisp to tender, but with a bite.
Heat a small skillet over medium low heat. Add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and the onions and cook until beginning to caramelize, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the cider, raise the heat to medium high and cook until liquid is reduced and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
Remove the beans from microwave. Season the beans with salt and pepper, to taste, and add to the pan with the onions and cider. Toss evenly to coat the beans and keep warm until ready to serve.

Cant' beleive what I am going to say but.. Completely disappointed! I love RR recipies, however with this one not sure what happend. I used fresh green beans instead, I beleive it was too much vinegar, or something. I end up literally trowing away the beans,boiling the rest of the beans that I had and putting a little bit of S&P on top. Not looking foward to do it again.

They were okay. I used fresh green beans and it was something different. It was fast and cheap, and pretty tasty. Not something I would make on a weekly basis but good to change things up a bit.
