Pistachio Green Bean Salad

Pistachio Green Bean Salad

This SALAD is the right mix of simple ingredients and big flavor! That’s right, you heard me, pistachios and green beans.
That mash-up’s one of those things that sounds a little odd when you hear it, but after you try it you’re like … where have you been all my life?!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 pounds of green beans
  • 3/4 cups chopped pistachios
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup Lemon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper

Directions:

  1. Bring a large pot of water with salt to a boil. 
  2. Finely chop 3/4 cups of pistachios. Trim the ends off the green beans. 
  3. Add to the boiling water and cook until tender, just about 5 minutes. Drain them into an ice bath to ensure they stop cooking. Once they are cooled, transfer them to a clean kitchen towel to dry them. 
  4. Finely grate the garlic cloves and zest of 1 lemon into a medium bowl. Add the juice of the lemon. Slowly whisk in the olive oil.
  5. Whisk in the parmesan cheese and then the chopped pistachios. Season with salt and pepper. 
  6. Add the green beans to the bowl and mix until completely dressed. Transfer to a serving platter. Serve cold and delicious!
