Crunchy green beans with orange miso sauce is a healthy recipe packed with flavor! Fresh beans tossed in a sweet-savory sauce and crispy panko bread crumbs.
Cook the Beans - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp and tender, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool. Drain water and set aside.
Cook the Aromatics - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger, and saute for 1 minute, constantly stirring until fragrant.
Add the Seasoning - Add the green beans and toss to coat. Add the broth, miso, orange juice, and zest. Stir to combine and cook until the liquid is reduced, about 4 minutes. Turn off the heat once the sauce reduces and coats the beans. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
Toast the Breadcrumbs - Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add panko bread crumbs, stirring every few minutes to evenly toast them until golden, about 5 minutes.
To Serve - Toss the beans with purple cabbage and transfer to a serving dish. Top with sesame seeds, toasted panko bread crumbs, and cilantro. Serve warm.
