I used frozen green beans and didn't add the garlic but it was still very good.

In my opinion there was nothing spectacular about this dish. The combination of flavors was just ok to me. I used red onions and a little fresh cilantro. I didn’t think the cilantro worked in this dish especially with red wine vinegar and seasonings. The red wine vinegar was slightly overpowering and didn't blend too well with other seasonings. There was a slight sweetness but lots of tanginess throughout the dish and thou it was edible I most likely will not consider making this again. Because everyone else in my family liked the beans I ended up giving this a 4 stars. I served this side dish with, “Herb-Crusted Chuck Roast,” and “Sally’s Spinach Mashed Potatoes,” all from this website.

These were rather sour tasting, and the vinegar (or perhaps the 15 minutes of cooking time) changed the color of the green beans to a dull, unappealing shade. The taste of cilantro wasn't perceptible at all. Nobody at my house liked them.

It might have had something to do with my preparation, but I didn't care for this recipe. It was rather bland, and the green beans were oily. I might cut the butter in half next time.

Very good. I increased the garlic and chicken broth. Next time, will probably add some more spices.

These were pretty good! I made in olive oil instead of butter for the health aspect. Next time I will use more red onion and more cilantro. I love cilantro and the flavor didn't come through as much as I hoped.

I can't put my finger on it but something just tasted off in the flavor combination. My husband, on the other hand liked it. But I won't be making it again.
