Roasted Green Beans With Pancetta And Yogurt Recipes

PERFECT ROASTED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
• Wash and trim the rough ends off the green beans. Pat them very dry with clean tea towels (wet green beans turn soggy in the oven).
• Place the prepared green beans on your baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the beans and sprinkle the salt all over. Use your hands to toss until all of the beans are lightly coated in oil. Arrange the green beans across the pan in a single layer.
• Roast for 14 to 16 minutes, undisturbed, until they are crisp-tender with some golden, caramelized spots. (If using slender haricots verts, they may be ready a couple of minutes earlier.)
• Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy with any desired accompaniments (see recipe notes for seasoning suggestions). Roasted green beans are best enjoyed while warm, but will keep in the refrigerator, covered, for 4 to 5 days.

ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH PANCETTA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. In 8-inch nonstick skillet, cook pancetta over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels; set aside. Reserve drippings.
• In 18x13-inch half-sheet pan, toss green beans, onion, oil, salt, pepper and reserved drippings.
• Roast uncovered 15 to 20 minutes, stirring twice, or until beans are tender. Sprinkle with pancetta.

ROASTED GREEN BEANS WITH PANCETTA AND LEMON ZEST

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees and position the oven racks in the lower and top thirds of the oven. Divide the green beans and pancetta evenly between two sheet pans. Drizzle each sheet pan with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss well, and roast for 10 minutes. Toss, switch racks, and roast for 5 to 10 more minutes, until cooked to your liking.
• Sprinkle with the lemon juice. Season with salt to taste, toss, and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with the lemon zest and serve hot or warm.

SAUTEED GREEN BEANS WITH PANCETTA AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add a big pinch of salt and add the green beans. Cook for about 5 minutes, the beans should still be crisp as they will be cooked more in the pan with the pancetta and mushrooms. Drain them and set aside.
• Heat the oil up in a saute pan and add the garlic and pancetta and cook until slightly crispy. Remove the pancetta from the pan and set aside. Add the butter to the fat that has rendered from the pancetta and saute the mushrooms until golden and crispy. Season with salt and pepper. Return the pancetta to the pan and add the blanched beans. Finish with the sour cream and bring to a gentle simmer to reduce and thicken a little and allow the flavours to marry. Give it a final taste and season with salt and pepper, if necessary, before serving.

GREEN BEANS WITH PANCETTA & TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

• In a medium pot with steamer insert, bring a few inches of water to a boil.
• In a large skillet, toast the almonds until golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Add the beans to the steamer insert. Steam until bright green, but still slightly crisp. About 5 minutes.
• In the large skillet, melt the butter and add the pancetta. Cook on medium until the pancetta just starts to crisp.
• Add the beans to the skillet and toss to coat. Continue cooking until the beans are done, about 3 minutes.
• Serve the beans with the toasted almonds on top. Season to taste with salt & pepper.
