HOW TO MAKE TGI FRIDAYS CRISPY GARLIC GREEN BEANS

Total time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4


Ingredients:

Wasabi Cucumber Ranch Dip

  • 1⁄2 Cup bottled ranch dressing (Hidden Valley is best)
  • 1⁄4 Cup cucumber, peeled, seeded, minced
  • 1 Tbs milk
  • 1 1⁄2 Tsp prepared horseradish
  • 1 Tsp cider vinegar
  • 1 Tsp wasabi powder
  • 1⁄8 Tsp salt
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper

Green Beans

  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 Cup milk
  • 4 Cups vegetable broth or 4 cups chicken broth
  • 6-8 oz. fresh green beans
  • 1 Cup flour
  • 1 Cup plain breadcrumbs or 1 cup seasoned dry bread crumb
  • 3⁄4 Tsp salt
  • 1⁄4 Tsp onion powder
  • 1⁄8 Tsp garlic powder
  • vegetable shortening, for frying or vegetable oil

Directions:

  1. Combine dip ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth.
  2. Place in a bowl; cover and chill until ready to use. Dip will thicken as it chills.
  3. Place fresh green beans in the chicken broth.
  4. Bring to a boil and cook 10 minutes, then place in cold water to stop the cooking process. Don’t skip this!
  5. In a shallow bowl, add 1 Cup of flour.
  6. In a second shallow bowl, mix beaten egg with milk.
  7. In a third bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, 3/4 teaspoons salt, black pepper, onion powder and garlic powder.
  8. Take a handful of beans out of the cold water and shake off excess liquid.
  9. Coat the beans with the flour, shaking to remove excess flour. Then dip the beans, one at a time, into the egg/milk mixture, then dip into the breadcrumb mixture. (Repeat this entire process again if want a crunchier texture).
  10. Place the beans on a plate until all are coated.
  11. Heat the shortening or oil to 350°F in a heavy skillet (or use a deep fryer). Use enough oil to cover the beans, about 1 1/2 inches.
  12. Fry until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  13. Drain on paper towels.
  14. To serve, place on a large platter and serve with the wasabi cucumber ranch dip. Enjoy!

Notes:

  1. After they’ve been dipped in the batter, they can also be placed in the freezer first to harden before frying. This will give them even tastier results.
  2. Kids will eat these up, so serve with a side of regular Ranch dressing (’cause most don’t like the wasabi!).
