Ingredients
  • 2 Vidalia onions
  • 2 jalapeños
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 pound green beans
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  2. Bring 3 cups salted water to a boil in a large pot. Add the green beans and simmer for 1 minute. 
  3. Strain and transfer to a large bowl. Let cool slightly. 
  4. Add the soy sauce, sugar, olive oil, cilantro, and toss well to combine. Top with the fried onion and jalapeno mixture and serve.
