Instructions

Add the string beans to a steamer pot insert. Steam over boiling water for 3 minutes. Remove the steamer basket with the undercooked beans and set aside.
Note: Beans will be slightly undercooked.
While the beans are steaming, add the olive oil to a non stick pan. Use medium heat.
Saute the shallots until slightly softened and fragrant.
Add the garlic, dill and capers. Add the black pepper and a pinch of the salt. Stir and cook 30 to 60 seconds.
Note: Be careful not to brown the shallots.
Add the string beans and season with the remaining salt. Mix well and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until beans are cooked through and still al dente.
Transfer to a serving dish. Serve with your favorite entree. Enjoy!
