GREEN BEANS WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS
"With caramelized onions and sauteed peppers, this green bean dish tastes rich and looks beautiful."
1 tbsp butter
3 tbsp olive oil, divided use
1/2 medium onion, very finely chopped
2 red bell peppers, julienned
3 tbsp chicken broth or bouillon
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 lb green beans, trimmed
Salt to taste
Melt butter. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and heat gently. Add onion and red pepper. Saute slowly over medium low heat until peppers are tender-crisp and onion is translucent and tender. Remove 1/2 of this mixture and reserve.
Add last tablespoon of the oil to the pepper and onion mixture remaining in the skillet. Continue to saute over low heat for 4 or 5 more minutes, until onions are very soft and beginning to caramelize.
Add chicken broth and lemon juice, put the mixture in a food processor or blender and process until creamy.
Steam green beans until tender; drain.
Combine green beans, reserved sauteed pepper and onion and the onion/pepper puree. Salt. Heat through and serve.
