With the frost setting in my opportunities to take advantage of my herb garden grow dim. So when I came on this I was eager to use some thyme before starting the drying process. As suggested I added a clove of garlic along with the shallots and finished the side dish with both zest and juice. The results were delicious, crispy beans with beautifully caramelized shallots laced throughout. Thanks!

    Nice basic side dish. We both felt this dish was missing something. If I made it again, I'd add some lemon zest and garlic. Also, our green beans must have been quite a bit bigger than the ones called for in the recipe. They were still raw after four minutes. They were nicely crunchy and crisp-tender after about 8 minutes. Thanks for posting.

    I don't care for the limp beans available in grocery stores at this time of year so I tried this with frozen beans. They were delicious! I used 1 large shallot and dried thyme. I'm looking forward to making this again with fresh beans. Made for 123 & 4 Hits Tag.
