Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh green beans
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
• 2 cups vegetable oil , or as needed

Instructions

1. 1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil; cook beans in boiling water until bright green, about 2 minutes. Immediately transfer green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and pat dry beans with paper towels.
2. 2 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3. 3 Pour flour into a bowl. Whisk egg in a separate bowl. Pour bread crumbs into a third bowl.
4. 4 Coat green beans with flour; transfer to beaten egg and coat evenly. Press coated green beans into bread crumbs.
5. 5 Working in batches, fry breaded green beans in hot oil until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer fried beans to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
