03 Jun Dr. Sheldon’s Recipes – Green beans with Garlic, Mushrooms and Marsala Wine

Serves 4

• 1 TBSP butter
• 1 TBSP olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 package sliced cremini mushrooms
• 1/4-1/2  tsp kosher salt
• 1 lb green beans, washed, trimmed and cut in half if long
• 1 1/2 TBSP marsala wine
• freshly grated pepper

1. Heat butter and olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat until melted. Add the mushrooms, garlic and 1/4 tsp salt. Cook over low-medium until the mushrooms are soft and have released their moisture, about 8 minutes.
2. Add the green beans and 1/2 TBSP of water. Stir well, then turn the heat up to medium and cover the pan. Cook until the green beans are almost at desired tenderness, about 5-7 minutes more.
3. Uncover the pot and cook over high heat until any leftover moisture has cooked off, about 1 minute.
4. Add the marsala wine and cook over high heat until the alcohol has burned off, another 1-2 minutes. Adjust salt, add pepper and serve.
