Easy Delicious String Beans

Frozen baby string beans from Trader Joe's (in a clear package)
Oil
Mrs. Dash
1/8 of an onion, thinly sliced or chopped

On medium-high, heat a couple tablespoons of oil in a wok or large frying pan that has a lid. While oil is heating, put in a few dashes of "Mrs. Dash" and the onions. (This is not necessarily how she finishes them, but this is how my Chinese mother-in-law starts her stir fried vegetables.) Stir-fry until onions are fairly soft. Add the string beans, stir fry for a minute or so, then put the lid on, turn the heat down a little, and set the timer for five minutes. When I do this, the water from the frozen vegetables is enough to steam them until done. Check after five minutes--if they are too crisp for your liking, give them a stir and put the lid back on for a couple more minutes. String beans are more forgiving than broccoli--if you overcook broccoli, it's awful IMHO, so I usually just stir fry broccoli the whole time, keeping the lid off.

These frozen beans from Trader Joe's are just as good as fresh, IMO.
