We loved these green beans. Super easy to make. I fried mine to cook them quicker and really like the texture of the fried green beans.

In a pan over medium high heat, add broth mix and beans and bring to a boil. Add cornstarch, stir quickly and turn off the heat as soon as the sauce thickens.

 

Season with salt and serve immediately.

Deep Frying:

Heat about 1/2 cup of oil to 350 degrees ºF and slowly add beans. Fry for 2-3 minutes, until the beans are wrinkled. Remove from oil, turn off the heat and drain the beans on paper towel.

Broiling:

Lay a piece of parchment paper on a large cooking tray. Add green beans and 1 tbsp vegetable oil and toss to coat evenly. Lay the green beans flat on the tray (they should not be piled up) and season with salt. Broil in the oven for 3-6 minutes, until the beans are lightly charred. Transfer beans on paper towel.
