Fresh Basil, Corn and Green Bean Pasta with Spicy Soy Sauce
Serves 4
1 package of rice or wheat spaghetti noodles, cooked
1 pound fresh green beans, de-stemmed
3 ears of corn
2 roma tomatoes, chopped
1 can of black beans
a large handful of fresh basil, diced
olive oil for cooking green beans
optional: 2 cans of albacore tuna, drained
Sauce:
5 TBS soy sauce
1 to 2 TBS Tabasco Green Pepper Sauce, depending on how spicy you like it.
Mix soy sauce and Tabasco thoroughly. I would have people pour desired amount over their food.
Cook noodles, set aside. Heat a cast iron pan on medium heat, when it's hot add olive oil and green beans. The beans should really sizzle in the pan for a good 5 minutes, stir every minute or so. After 5 minutes cover and cook them while stirring occasionally until they are tender, but firm. Cut corn off cobs and add to green beans, stir, let sit covered with lid. The corn will cook quickly from the retained heat in the pan.
Chop tomatoes and dice basil. Heat black beans. Serve each plate with noodles then add tomatoes, green bean-corn stir fry, black beans and fresh basil. For a little extra oomph add tuna. This would be especially good with fresh tuna! Serve with spicy soy sauce.
Here is a picture of the meal with tuna and extra black beans....
