How to Heat and Serve Pre-Cooked Frozen French Green Beans
01Heat Directly from Frozen: No thawing is required for hot preparations. Heat the desired portion directly from frozen using sautéing, steaming, or microwave cooking.
02Pan-Searing / Skillet Sauté: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the frozen beans and heat for approximately 3–5 minutes, tossing regularly, until warmed through and lightly browned.
03Steaming: Place frozen green beans in a steamer basket over simmering water. Cover and steam for approximately 4–5 minutes, or until heated through and the desired texture is reached.
04Microwave: Place the desired portion in a microwave-safe dish with approximately 2 tbsp of water. Cover and microwave on high for approximately 3–4 minutes, adjusting the time according to portion size and microwave output. Drain excess liquid before serving.
