In this post I’m sharing and easy side dish recipe for Soy Sauce Glazed Green Beans.

You may be thinking, soy sauce and green beans, really?! Yes! You’ll have to try this one to understand how flavorful these green beans turn out after cooking.

Whenever I serve them, I am always asked how I make them. For that reason, I decided to share this very easy recipe. Sometimes it is combining some of the most basic ingredients to create a tasty dish that your whole family will love.

If you’re concerned about sodium level in soy sauce, you could opt for a lower sodium version. I happen to like the regular soy sauce. I’m not saying this is one of those dishes that you should make every other day but it is good.

I enjoy having a few ways to prepare a vegetable in my recipe collection and this deserves a spot in yours.

Here are the ingredients that you’ll need to make this side dish:

  • Canned Green Beans
  • Chicken Stock
  • Soy Sauce , regular or low sodium
  • Dried Minced Onions
  • Cracked Black Pepper, to taste
Drain and rinse green beans. Add them to a medium sauce pan with chicken stock, soy sauce, minced onions and black pepper.
 
Bring to a rapid boil. Cook over medium high heat until almost all of the liquid is evaporated.
 
That’s it! So easy ? Use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock to make this dish vegan.

EEEEE I really, really hate canned green beans, but this recipe sounds so good. Could pre-boiled or cooked green beans be subbed in for the canned and still get great results, or no? Thanks!

Hi Lynn, Sure they could. Use whatever you like and just cook them down until tender. ~Julia
