Ingredients

• 400 grams green beans
• 2 medium Anaheim peppers
• 200 grams cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 large garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
• 3 tablespoons water

Directions

Step 1

Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them in half if they are very long. Rinse and drain.

Step 2

Slice the Anaheim peppers lengthwise, remove the seeds and membranes, and cut them into thin strips.

Step 3

Halve the cherry tomatoes if they are large. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the Anaheim peppers to the pan and sauté for 2–3 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 7

Add the green beans to the pan and toss to combine with the peppers.

Step 8

Sprinkle the ground cumin and paprika over the vegetables, stirring to evenly coat them in the spices.

Step 9

Add 3 tablespoons of water to the pan. Cover with a lid and let the green beans cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.

Step 10

Remove the lid and stir in the cherry tomatoes. Season the dish with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 11

Cook for another 3–5 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften slightly while maintaining their shape.

Step 12

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Transfer the dish to a serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 13

Serve warm as a side dish or pair it with rice, grilled proteins, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
