I made a double batch of these and froze half of them. The fresh ones were awesome and the frozen ones were a little limp - not as crisp and fresh. I served these with Asian Pork Tenderloin (recipe 54114) and brown rice for a yummy meal.

This was SO tastey! I think I too could have cooked steamed them a little longer, but the best part is, I didn't make an entire lb. of beans so I had a good amount of sauce to REALLY coat the beans. This sauce is SO GOOD! I am going to use the same recipe to make beef with broccoli!! I bet that would be great! The sauce would really stick to the broccoli. YUM! Thanks BOX O'WINE! I'm going to see if you have any more recipes!

This is a WONDERFUL Chinese Green Bean recipe! I am so glad I found this. I made it exactly as you stated using a wok instead of a skillet. The ingredients are a perfect blend for the beans. Everyone raved and asked for the recipe. Thank you so much, BoxO'Wine for sharing this.
