Loaded Asian Green Beans

These Loaded Asian Green Beans are a fun and flavorful addition to any meal. My favorite way to make them is on the grill! Have you ever grilled your green beans?!?! I highly recommend trying it. Cooking green beans on the grill gives them a delightful blistery char, while still keeping them tender crisp. This recipe is amazing for fresh summer green beans.

If you don’t have a grill basket yet for cooking veggies, you need to get your life together! I absolutely love grilling out in the summer and it’s so much fun to experiment with bold flavors and new and exciting ways to enjoy fresh seasonal veggies. If you don’t have a grill basket, you can still do this recipe outside, just lay a thick piece of foil down over the grates so they don’t fall through. You can also do this recipe indoors in a grill pan.

It’s a garlicky, gingery, spicy, crunchy, tangy celebration of flavors and textures in your mouth. Here’s a demo of me making them on my grill in the backyard.
