Pepperoni Green Beans

Pepperoni gives this sauce its kick. Or try other hot sausages such as cured chorizo.  You could even serve it over pasta.

Ingredients:

• 4 ounces thin-sliced pepperoni, slices cut in half
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 1/2 cups canned tomatoes with their juice (one 16-ounce can)
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 lb frozen green beans

Directions:

1. In a large frying pan, sauté the pepperoni over moderate heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
2. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
3. Pour off the fat from the pan and wipe the pan clean.
4. In the same pan, heat the oil over moderately low heat.
5. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes.
6. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
7. Stir in the tomatoes with their juice, breaking them up.
8. Add the salt, cover, and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
9. Add the green beans and pepperoni.

Serves : 4
