Adobo Green Beans Recipe

Filipino · Side dish · 25 min total

This Filipino-inspired adobo green beans are a quick and savory side dish, with green beans simmered in a tangy soy-vinegar sauce with garlic and black pepper.

Ingredients

• 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons vinegar (cane or white)
• 1/2 cup water
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil

Instructions

1. Heat oil in a skillet or wok over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
2. Add green beans and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
3. Pour in soy sauce, vinegar, water, peppercorns, and bay leaf. Do not stir; let it boil without stirring for 2 minutes to cook off the vinegar's sharpness.
4. Stir, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes until green beans are tender but still crisp.
5. Remove bay leaf. Serve hot as a side dish.

Tips

• For a spicier version, add a sliced red chili pepper along with the garlic.
• This dish can be served at room temperature as a salad or side.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
