Stir-Fried Green Beans with Pork and Oyster Sauce
A combination of steaming and stir-frying yields tender-crisp green beans. You'll need a nonstick skillet with a tight-fitting lid for this recipe; the lid traps the steam that cooks the beans. Serve as a side dish or light main course with steamed jasmine rice.

Tip
Don't forget to thoroughly dry the green beans before adding them to the skillet. Wicking away excess moisture helps them brown in the hot oil and also reduces splatter. Also, don't stir the beans for the first 3 minutes after adding them to the skillet. This allows them to brown and develop flavor.

01In a small bowl, stir together the sherry, oyster sauce, sugar, chili-garlic sauce and 2 tablespoons water; set aside. In a nonstick 12-inch skillet over medium-high,heat 2 tablespoons of oil until barely smoking. Add the green beans in an even layer and cook without stirring until they begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Stir, then add ¼ cup water and immediately cover the pan. Cook until the beans are bright green and crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl, along with any water remaining in the pan.

EXCELLENT!
This was delicious. I cooked the green beans a little longer - preference - but everything else I did exactly the same and they came out perfect. So much flavor. Will be in permanent rotation.

Chris mentioned this today on Boston Public Radio and I was intrigued enough to track it down. Looks good! I plan to add 4 oz ground chicken and serve over rice for a meal.
