Spicy Stir Fry Green Beans
Ingredients
16 ounces green beans ends removed
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon grated ginger
2 cloves garlic minced
2 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorns toasted and ground (optional)
2 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
â–¢1 tablespoon soy sauce
â–¢1 teaspoon salt (add more to taste if desired)
Instructions
Toast the Sichuan peppercorns in a skillet over medium heat, stirring often. Once they are fragrant remove them from the skillet.
Using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, grind the toasted Sichuan Peppercorns.
Heat the coconut oil over medium heat in a wok or large pot with a lid.
Add the green beans and cook for 8 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes.
Add the ginger, garlic and ground Sichuan peppercorns and cook until the garlic and ginger is light brown (about 1-2 minutes). Stir often to prevent the garlic and ginger from burning.
Add the soy sauce, salt and chili garlic sauce and stir to combine. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring periodically to prevent burning. Reduce the heat if the chili starts to burn.
Remove from heat and serve.
