Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. sm. fresh green beans
  • 1 quart. water
  • 2 s. red or possibly yellow sweet peppers
  • 1/2 c. coarsely minced cashews
  • 1/2 c. butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. sliced green onions
  • 2 tbsp. minced parsley
  • Whole cashews (optional)

Directions

  1. Wash beans; trim ends, and remove strings. Bring water to a boil; add in green beans, and cook, uncovered, 4 to 5 min or possibly just under crisp-tender. Drain beans, and plunge them into cool water, then drain again. Divide green beans into 8 bundles. Slice sweet peppers into 8 (1/4 inch) rings. Secure each bundle with a pepper slice. Arrange on a baking sheet. Cover and chill overnight. Cook cashews in butter, stirring constantly, till cashews are toasted and butter is lightly browned. Remove from heat; add in lemon rind and juice, green onions, and parsley. Cover and chill up to 24 hrs. Remove cashew butter and beans from refrigerator 30 min before serving. Spoon cashew butter over beans. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 10 min or possibly till beans are warm. Spoon pan drippings over green beans. Garnish with whole cashews, if you like. Yield: 8 servings.
