Red Pepper Green Bean Almondine - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups fresh green beans, trimmed and halved
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup sliced almonds
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms

Preparation

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook uncovered until bright green, about 3 minutes. Immerse green beans in ice water for 1 minute to stop the cooking process. Drain.
Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted and bubbling, about 1 minute. Cook and stir almonds, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper in the hot butter until almonds are golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
Stir green beans, red bell pepper, and mushrooms into the skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
