Quick Green Beans
["2 lb. snap beans or 2 cans or 2 pkg. frozen", "1 Tbsp. butter or margarine", "salt and pepper", "1 tsp. Accent", "1/2 c. pecan halves"]
["If fresh beans, wash well, snip off stems, then sliver, French-style.", "Put fresh beans into a pan, adding boiling water to not quite cover beans.", "Cover tightly; bring to boiling over high heat, then remove the lid and cook until crisp-tender.", "(For canned beans, drain and cook the liquid down to half over high heat.) For all, turn a few times during cooking; you want to prevent scorching as the liquid cooks away.", "When finished, there should be barely a spoonful of liquid in the pot.", "While the beans are cooking, saute pecans in butter over low heat until very crisp.", "When beans are tender-crisp, add 2 tablespoons butter, salt and pepper to taste, then the Accent.", "Add the pecans; toss slightly.", "Serve at once.", "Serves 4 to 6."]
