Preparation

  1. Mix soy sauce, sugar and Sherry and set aside.
  2. In a large saucepan, dissolve bouillon in the chicken broth over high heat. Add the beans, and simmer until nearly all liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly. Drain the beans and set aside.
  3. In a wok or skillet, heat the oil and butter. Add garlic and scallions and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until just softened. Add the beans and toss until coated. Sprinkle soy-sugar-Sherry mix over beans and stir-fry for 1 minute. Serve hot.
