HOT SAUCE. Combine the distilled vinegar, jalapeño, and garlic in a large bowl; season with salt and sugar. TAHINI SAUCE. In another bowl, combine yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, and salt. If you prefer a thinner sauce, mix in a splash of water. COOK. Heat a large skillet over high heat. Toss the green beans with oil, salt, and pepper. Transfer beans into the hot skillet and cook, tossing frequently, until lightly charred on all sides but still bright green and with some snap to them, about 4 minutes. TOSS.

Spoon the creamy tahini onto the bottom of a serving platter and top with the green beans and hazelnuts. ENJOY! |
