Spanish Green Beans and Tomatoes

Spanish Green Beans and Tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 pounds fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch lengths
  • 3 cups canned diced tomatoes with their juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
  • 3 tablespoons pine nuts
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 bay leaf
  • salt and pepper, to taste


  1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat if garlic begins to brown. Add green beans, then continue to cook and stir until bright green but not quite tender, about 4 minutes.
  2. Mix in tomatoes, lemon juice and pine nuts, and season with chives, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Reduce heat and simmer gently uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf before serving.
