Charred Green Beans With Brown Butter Vinaigrette

Green beans step out of their usual—dare we say boring?—holiday casserole format in this flavor-packed stir-fry. The beans are charred until smoky and crisp-tender and then topped with crunchy bits of hazelnut and sage and finished with a brown butter vinaigrette infused with garlic and shallots, making it both rich and acidic. The vinaigrette solidifies as it cools, so if you’re making it ahead of time, reheat the dressing in the microwave before serving to loosen it back up.
