Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

INGREDIENTS

1 bag (12 ounces) trimmed green beans or wax beans (or a combination), cut in half

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced

1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Cumin Seed

1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Mustard Seed

1/4 teaspoon McCormick® Fennel Seed

1/8 teaspoon McCormick® Red Pepper, Crushed

1 pint grape tomatoes, halved

1/4 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

1. Bring 1/2 inch water to boil in large skillet on high heat. Add beans; cover and cook 7 to 9 minutes or until tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Drain well; set aside.

 

2. Mix oil, garlic, cumin, mustard, fennel, and red pepper in same skillet. Cook and stir on medium heat 2 minutes or until seeds are fragrant.
