Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Lightly spray a cooking sheet with Pam or other nonstick spray.

2. In a medium bowl, toss the shallots with 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the seasoned onions evenly over the prepared cookie sheet.

3. Roast until golden and tender, stirring about every 8 minutes, about 18-20 minutes total cooking time.

4. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Blanch the green beans for 3 minutes. Be careful not to overcook. Working quickly, drain in a large colander and then transfer the beans to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process.

5. Drain again and pat dry with paper towels.

6. In a large sauté pan, heat the remaining 4 Tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high flame.

7. Toss in the roasted shallots and blanched beans, tossing until thoroughly coated with the oil.

8. Stirring frequently, sauté until heated through, about 3 or 4 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve hot.
