Balsamic Green Beans


This is one of my new favorite side dishes- quick, easy and delicious!

Balsamic Green Beans
2 lbs green beans (snap off ends)
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Cook green beans in boiling salted water for 4 minutes.  Remove and set aside.  Cook balsamic vinegar in small saucepan over medium heat about 7 minutes until reduced by about half to a syrup.  Meanwhile toss beans in mixture of olive oil, salt and pepper and place in single layer on roasting pan.  Roast 18 minutes at 475 or until slightly charred (don't stir).  Remove from oven and place in serving bowl and toss with balsmic vinegar.  Serve immediately.
