Paleo Green Beans with White Wine Cream Sauce
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh green beans
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup dry white wine
- ⅛ cup full-fat coconut milk, or heavy whipping cream, if not dairy-free
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- Kosher or fine sea salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the green beans by washing them and cutting off each end. Using a steamer basket over a large saucepan or a steamer pot, steam the green beans for 5 minutes. You want them cooked a little bit but not to the point where they lose their crispness. In a saucepan on low heat, add the ghee and garlic, and sauté for 2 minutes. Add in the white wine and coconut milk and whisk continuously for another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat. Stir in the green beans and top with almonds. Season to taste with salt and pepper. This recipe can be doubled easily for additional guests.
