Soy sauce and peanut butter flavor these crisp-tender beans. "They're a nice change from the usual green bean salads and casseroles," says Robin Joss from Ashburn, Virginia. "With a sesame seed crunch, this dish always wows guests and brings plenty of recipe requests."

Ingredients:
• 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon peanut butter
• 3/4 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
• 4-1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, garlic, sesame seeds, brown sugar and peanut butter; set aside.

2. In a large skillet, stir-fry green beans in oil until crisp-tender. Remove from the heat. Add the soy sauce mixture; stir to coat.
