Get your pan smoking hot with a few swirls of olive oil and add in one pound of trimmed, fresh green beans

You can also use a wok for this recipe but it’s probably the only kitchen tool we don’t have

Shake the pan so they’re all covered in olive oil

It’ll take about 5 or 6 minutes and  they’ll start to blister and make popping noises

Add in 1/2 teaspoon of crushed red pepper

Give the pan another shake so the red pepper is evenly distributed

Squeeze in 1/2 of a fresh orange and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce

Toss to coat every bean and keep the pan moving!  Now that there’s sweet oj and soy it will caramelize quickly

Caramelize = good, burnt = bad

Give a quick stir and serve up this spicy and delicious side!
