For a milder flavor, use a less spicy chile or remove the seeds and membranes before mincing. To transform this into a main course, add cooked shrimp, chicken, or tofu to the skillet along with the green beans. Fresh green beans are essential for the best texture and flavor. Avoid using frozen beans. Garnish with chopped peanuts and a squeeze of lime juice for extra flavor.
