Green Beans With Sunflower Seed Kernels Recipe
Ingredients
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried chervil
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
1 teaspoon chopped chives
1/8 teaspoon dried savory
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
1 pound green beans
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
Boiling salted water
1/4 cup sunflower seed kernels
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1. Mix the butter with marjoram, basil, chervil, parsley, chives, savory, and thyme.
2. Wash beans and remove the ends. Put the onion and garlic in boiling salted water (the water should only just cover the bottom of the pan) in a large skillet. Add the beans, cover, and cook until crisp-tender.
3. Pour off the excess liquid. Add the herb butter and sunflower seed kernels and swirl around to melt the butter. Add salt and pepper to taste and toss over medium heat for 1 minute.
