Expert Tips

Try ready-to-use chopped garlic to save a few minutes of prep.

If you have both green and yellow beans, use equal amounts of each in this recipe.

Oregano, popular in Mediterranean cooking, has a pungent flavor and smell. This popular "pizza" herb was almost unknown in the United States until soldiers returning from overseas during World War II sang the praises of this herb.
