The longer this quick-and-easy salad stands, the more flavour the beans absorb. For best results, make it a day ahead and serve at room temperature.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 lb green beans, trimmed
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 shallots, halved and sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 1 lb cremini mushrooms, quartered
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp white wine vinegar

Preparation

In large pot of boiling salted water, blanch green beans until tender-crisp, about 4 minutes. Drain and cool under cold water; drain again and place in bowl.

In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook shallots and garlic for 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; add vinegar.

Toss mushroom mixture with beans. Let stand for 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Serve at room temperature.)
