Resist the urge to stir the green beans often—that’s the secret to getting a nice amount of char. For even better flavor, use 13 oz. of fresh green beans from your local farmers market; trim them yourself before steaming in a covered container in the microwave.
How to Make It
Step 1
Microwave green beans at high 2 minutes. Remove green beans from bag; pat dry. Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a medium skillet over high. Add green beans; cook, stirring once or twice, until slightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 2
Add chopped tomato, salsa, 1 tablespoon olive oil, fresh lime juice, honey, and kosher salt to green beans in skillet; stir to combine. Top with roasted salted pepitas.
