This Thai Sweet Chili Green Beans Recipe is a great side dish for so many meals!

I make this Thai Sweet Chili Green Beans recipe quite often as it goes with chicken, beef, fish or a vegetarian meal. It's packed full of flavour but it's easy and quick to make.

I've only got photos of the green beans with the chicken recipe but it just helps you imagine how good it is as part of a meal.Thai Sweet Chili Green Beans Recipe

  2. I was just thinking we haven't had fresh green beans in ages. I've not made green beans in any way like this, it sounds delish, and would like to try it!
