This recipe is an easy weekend dinner with family and friends. It's full of flavor, hearty, tasty and goes well with steamed rice. It is actually an Asian dish and the taste most likely close to Teriyaki flavor.
TIPS:
- cut the beans into the same length to ensure even cooking
- do not overcook the beans
- allow the adobo sauce to reduce before adding the beans
- stir fry the beans just until tender and crisp
