Preparation

In a small bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, olive oil, soy sauce, grated ginger, sesame seeds and garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the green beans and cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring regularly to sauté them evenly in the butter.
Pour the sauce over the green beans and continue cooking 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly, until the green beans are cooked but still crisp under the tooth and well coated with caramelized sauce.
Serve immediately, while still hot.
