Anchovie Paste, I Now Have a Reason

Found this recipe online from another blogger, but yet it really doesn't have a lot of true blue measurements going on. Still, this is a kick butt recipe in itself and I think from now on I'm not going to make green bean no other way.  When you see the ingredients, don't get all freaked out, unless your a vegan, etc.

Green Beans With Anchovies and Garlic

  • Fresh green beans blanched in water or one drained can of green beans ready to go
  • olive oil
  • 3 Tb or more of anchovie paste or 3-4 anchovie fillets (use more to taste)
  • minced garlic (adjust to taste)
In a frying pan heat up the olive oil. Stir in garlic and anchovie paste until slightly cooked (anchovie paste or fillets will dissolve into the oil). Add green greans (we used the french cut ones) and cook until heated through. Serve immediately.

Hubby loved this one, and I was amazed how good it tasted. You couldn't even tell that there was that salty fishy anchovie in there, so that's what I was looking for. Anchovies used as a seasoning. Booyah.
