Sweet And Spicy Hoisin Steak With Green Beans Recipes

SWEET AND SPICY GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Arrange a steamer basket in a pot over boiling water, and steam the green beans 3 to 4 minutes.
• In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, garlic, garlic chili sauce, and honey.
• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the green beans, and fry for 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in the soy sauce mixture. Continue cooking and stirring 2 minutes, or until the liquid is nearly evaporated. Serve immediately.

HOISIN SAUTéED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Whisk hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Bring about 4 cups water to a boil in a large deep skillet. Add green beans and boil for 3 minutes. Drain green beans and run under cold water for 1 minute.
• Bring hoisin mixture to a simmer in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add green beans.
• Saute until desired doneness, about 5 minutes.

HOISIN ROASTED GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400º.
• Stir hoisin sauce, orange juice, soy sauce and olive oil together in a large bowl. Add green beans, toss to coat, and season with salt and pepper. (Hoisin sauce is very salty, so be careful not to over-salt the green beans.).
• Spread beans in an even layer on a baking sheet with sides and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are soft and slightly shriveled.
• Sprinkle beans with chives and toss gently. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with pan juices, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

HOISIN SLIVERED BEEF WITH GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Heat both oils in a large nonstick fry pan or wok at medium-high. Cut beef into thin short strips, against the grain. Add beef to pan, toss and sauté slightly for 5 minutes.
• Add sliced onion and green beans, toss. Add garlic and ginger. (I like my beans a little more done. I usually put the cover on to cook them for about 5 more minutes).
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Add soy sauce, rice vinegar, fish sauce, sweet chili sauce, hoisin sauce and chili paste. Stir to combine.
• (Add mixture of cornstarch and water if desired to thicken).
• Serve with rice.

GRILLED STEAKS WITH SWEET-SPICY HOISIN SAUCE

Steps:

• Light a grill.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the 1/4 cup of oil.
• Add the shallots, garlic, ginger, crushed red pepper and cilantro and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes.
• Add the hoisin, soy sauce and chicken stock, raise the heat to moderately high and boil until thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the honey.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the butter until blended; keep warm.
• Generously rub the steaks and onions with oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the steaks over high heat for 4 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and medium-rare.
• Transfer the steaks to a carving board and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Grill the onions for 4 minutes per side, or until charred.
• Transfer the onions to a platter.
• Thickly slice the steaks and arrange on the platter.
• Serve with the steak sauce, baked potatoes with choice of toppings and haricots verts.
