About this Recipe

Here's a fresh twist on a classic French recipe! Green beans almondine is a delicious light veggie dish, equally suited as a standalone snack or alongside a heartier meal. Our version uses Orange Tarragon and Provencal Seasoned Salt together for a complimentary combination of seasoning.

Both of these blends are herb-forward with subtle floral notes, lending them an aroma reminiscent of a classic French bistro. We finished the dish by adding in dried cranberries alongside the toasted almonds, giving the dish a tart kick that complements the citrus in the spice blends.

Instructions

1
Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a sauce pan. Add green beans and boil them for 3 minutes until bright green and tender. Immediately plunge cooked green beans in an ice bath to stop the cooking processes and strain. Set green beans aside. 
2
In a medium sauté pan, add your butter on medium high heat until melted. Add the onions and sweat them until they start to caramelize, about 3 minutes. 
3
Next add the ham, Orange Tarragon seasoning and stock. Stir until fragrant and add the green beans, Provençal Seasoned Salt and dried fruit. 
4
Cook until stock is reduced and looks saucy. 
5
Add the green beans to serving dish and garnish with the toasted silvered almonds. For added zing, zest an orange over green beans. 
6
Enjoy!
