    What Are Spicy Green Beans?

    I must admit, I’ve been adding Sriracha sauce to just about everything lately. My kids are starting to make fun of me. I’ve come to the conclusion that just about everything is better with a little kick to it. This is especially true with vegetables. The best way to take any vegetable dish up a notch is to make it a little spicy!

    Then I remembered P.F. Chang’s most famous appetizer, their Chili Garlic Green Beans. The same company that makes my beloved Sriracha Sauce (Huy Fong Foods) also makes an awesome Garlic Chili Paste called Sambal Oelek. And I just happened to have some in my fridge. So, today, I decided to make my own version of Spicy Green Beans! Spoiler alert: They turned out awesome.

    Spicy Green Beans Ingredients include garlic chili paste, garlic, red pepper flakes and soy sauce

    Spicy Green Beans Recipe

    I did quite a bit of research online to develop this recipe and was amazed that there were TONS of different versions of this dish. Some people blanched or cooked their Green Beans and THEN mixed in with their spicy sauce. Some used a Garlic Chili Paste, some used Red Pepper Flakes, some used both (me too!). So, I decided to try out some hybrids of these recipes to see what I could come up with. I’m super happy with the results and can’t wait to share it with you! Here is what you’ll need:

    • Green Beans
    • Red Pepper Flakes
    • Garlic, Minced
    • Soy Sauce
    • Garlic Chili Paste
    • Brown Sugar
    • Sesame Oil
    • Mazola Corn Oil
    • Water
    • Salt and Pepper To Taste

    How To Prepare Green Beans For Cooking

    The most time consuming part of this recipe is preparing your Green Beans for cooking. On one end, every Green Bean has a rough tip that was attached to the plant it grew on. Everyone probably has their own method for getting this tip off. What I do is this. After rinsing them in a strainer (always wash your Green Beans!), I lay out on a large cutting board to that the rough tips are all on the same side. I then just take a large, sharp knife and cut the tips off! Pretty easy! I dry them all off in a large, dry, clean towel and I’m ready to go!

    What To Serve These Green Beans With?

    These Spicy Green Beans would go great with just about any side dish. From Bisquick Chicken Fingers to French Dip Sliders. Or, you could add some spicy flair to the holidays! They would be a great pairing with a Traditional Ham Recipe for Thanksgiving or Christmas! The spiciness of this dish would be a great contrast with the sweetness of a ham!

    Notes, Tips and Variations

    • Be Prepared- Have all you ingredients measured and ready to be added to this dish. Have your Soy Sauce mixture all ready to go, your garlic minced, etc. This is a pretty simple recipe, but the timing IS important.
    • Too Much Heat?- I’ll be honest, as evidenced from my addiction to Sriracha Sauce, I REALLY love spicy food. My wife ate these and said they were almost too spicy for her. She still loved them, but they were right on the edge. The good news is that it’s super easy to make these a little more mild. Simply skip the Red Pepper Flakes or cut the amount in half!

    I hope you enjoy this recipe for Spicy Green Beans. Let me know how it turns out for you in the comments section!
