If you are a regular reader of Katie’s Cucina you know I love to grill. I’m not intimidated of grilling I’ve learned to embrace it. Living in Florida we grill a lot. Especially when its still 90 degrees out as the rest of the country is finally starting to cool off. I’ve been making these Grilled Asian Green Beans and Red Bell Peppers all summer long.
Grilled Green Beans are my absolute favorite side dish. I love to serve them along side my Asian London Broil with rice, and Asian Cucumber Salad.
