GREEN BEANS WITH CHICKEN EMBUTIDO

 

The original recipe came from Yummy magazine's Jan/Feb 2010 issue. Instead of using ground pork, I used Purefoods Ready-to-Eat Embotido.

Ingredients:
200 grams of green beans, cut into 1½-inch pieces
1 tbsp corn oil
1½ tbsp minced garlic
1 onion, sliced
1 pack Purefoods ready-to-eat Embotido
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
To blanch the green beans, boil water with a pinch of salt in a medium pot. Add the green beans and cook until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of iced water. Drain and set aside. In a medium frying pan, heat the oil. Sauté garlic and onion then add mashed embotido. Mix well. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until browned. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well and cook for another minute. Lower the heat and remove any excess oil from the pan. Add the blanched green beans and mix well.
