Lemony Green Beans With Shiitake Mushrooms - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon Smart Balance butter spread or 1 tablespoon other regular tub margarine
4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps sliced
1 shallot, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
2 -3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine
salt and pepper

Preparation

Melt tub margarine in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add mushrooms and saute for about 5 minutes. Remove and reserve, covered.
Add shallots and garlic to the pan and saute until they soften, about 2 minutes.
Add green beans and toss to coat. Add lemon juice and wine, cover, and simmer on low until most of the liquid evaporates, about 10 minutes. Be careful not to overcook them, the beans should be crisp-tender.
Add mushrooms back in and warm for about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve.
