Pan-Seared Green Beans

Ingredients:
1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:
In a large bowl combine green beans, mustard, cayenne pepper, paprika, cumin, chili powder, garlic and salt; toss to coat beans. Heat in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat until smoking. Add the beans, being careful not to crowd the pan too much (cook in two batches, if necessary). Cook beans, without disturbing, until charred patches appear, about 5 minutes. Toss beans and cook 5 minutes or more. Transfer to a bowl or plate and serve immediately with Spicy Remoulade.

Mix mayonnaise, cayenne pepper, mustard, capers, garlic, parsley and lemon juice until combined. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
