Grilled Green Bean Salad
Grilled Green Bean Salad is a simple yet vibrant side dish that brings out the natural flavors of fresh green beans with a smoky, charred finish. To prepare, toss green beans in olive oil, salt, and pepper, then grill them until tender and slightly crisp. For added flavor, you can toss the grilled beans with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice, and finish with a sprinkle of toasted nuts or crumbled feta cheese for texture
Ingredients:
1 cup Green Beans (trimmed)
1 1/2 tsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
1 1/3 tbsps Shallot (thinly sliced)
1/4 Garlic (clove, minced)
1/8 Lemon (juiced, zested)
1 tbsp Fresh Dill (chopped)
Directions:
1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
