Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Step 2

Blanch the green beans by boiling them for 2-3 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Immediately transfer the beans to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.

Step 5

Stir in the smoked paprika and cayenne pepper. Cook for 30 seconds to bring out the spices' flavors.

Step 6

Add the blanched green beans to the skillet and toss to coat them in the spiced oil mixture.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 8

Pour the mustard mixture over the green beans and toss until evenly coated.

Step 9

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce slightly thickens and clings to the beans.

Step 10

Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more salt or black pepper if needed.

Step 11

Transfer the green beans to a serving dish and sprinkle with toasted almond slices for added crunch, if desired.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy this devilishly flavorful side dish!
